G'day all,
It seems there are many differing experiences as far as
actually seeing Owlet-Nightjars is concerned. In 11 years of wandering around
the Australian bush(not continuously!), I've now had about 6 sightings.
Always the same. The bird flies from it's small hollow (in my case usually a
mallee tree) as I just walk past.No tapping required!
Nearly every time it will perch not far away and loo
at
me intently.
Perhaps as previously suggested a response to potential
attack by goannas?!
