CAN YOU SEE ME Photo

Photographer’s Note

While walking in a gallery forest during the dry season, a nightjar flew off from the ground ahead of me. I suspected it was resting, however, when it started to do the broken wing behaviour, I knew it had a nest.

Well, i walked very carefuly in order to find its location without steping on it. It took me 15 minutes to find its chick. See how long it takes you to see it!

Well I'm a birdwatcher, but couldn't find it !
Very interesting note. Astonishing shot.

The chick might be more difficult to find if it wasn't in the middle of the shot :-] but I can appreciate the incredible camouflage all the same. Very well found! Your excellent knowledge of all things in nature always gives you the edge.
Thanks for sharing this Leo.
