NIGHTJAR: These birds migrate to the UK in spring. Also called 'lich fowl' or corpse bird, they are nocturnal. It is said that the souls of unbaptised babies wander as nightjars until Judgement Day.

As a "night owl" who rarely goes to bed before 2am, I've always felt a special kinship with nightjars and other nocturnal animals✨

#Nightjars had a bit of a bad rep in #Aristotle’s time. His belief that these nocturnal #birds would sneak into stables to suck #goats dry of their milk and subsequently turn them blind earned these birds the nickname of #goatsucker.
frogmouths, potoos, and nightjars are my favorite type of birb
excited to see more from Rui and friends! 🥀🥀💕

Here are some drawings of birds I have done this year: The #turtle #dove is Britain’s only migratory pigeon or dove. #Nightjars also migrate to the UK from Africa, usually around April-May. They spend the summer months here before migrating back south during September.

This summer, volunteers are listening for nightjars with the Canadian Nightjar Survey! The survey season is on until July 15. Thank you to @jennybienaim for creating this gorgeous Common Nighthawk illustration! @WildResearch @ellycknight https://t.co/KjVx7sui0f
#OTD (May 26 OS), #Linnaeus was shown #stinkhorn (#Phallus impudicus; a scarce #fungus found in #Småland by a local doctor). Boys were eating #Pinus sylvestris #sapwood as a snack; he extolled its virtues as a #medicinal plant. Then he saw #nightjars (#Caprimulgus europaeus).
This week we celebrate the Apodiformes or “footless” birds, such as Hummingbirds and Swifts, and their closely-related cousins the Caprimulgiformes or “goatsuckers,” such as Nighthawks and Nightjars. Learn more here: https://t.co/btdaaepPir #Feathursday
