Media notes
Adult male Red-necked Nightjar appeared at swimming pool at same time every day (dawn and dusk). It often took a drink and.....on two occasions skimmed the surface to scoop water. Exactly the same happened in 2012Photographed in the dark using Panasonic Lumix G3 and 14mm wide angle lens on manual focus at 3m with camera flash. Shutter pressed manually as the bird passed in front of me. I got one shot per two visits on average. It took many dawns/dusks to get this shot. Red-eye removed using PhotoPlus. Elevation: 110 m. Date added to IBC: June 21, 2016.
