    Default Nightjar

    This pic was clicked using Canon 6D Mark II, using Sigma 150-500 lens. I took about a minute to locate this beauty. My safari guide helped me locate.

    You can see new born next to the mother. Hope you like the shot.

    Where was this photographed? Please post the exif details like shutter speed, aperture, ISO, amount cropped etc so that people can comment based on that.

    Generally it is difficult to spot unless one has a trained eye as the camouflage of this bird is nice. They fly away only if you move too close. If you crawl and move slowly then you can move very close. From safari vehicles one can get a steep angle where the camera and lens is pointed down. When on foot, if one can get flat on the ground then the perspective is nice. Thanks for sharing.

    Best,
    Sabyasachi
