We have heard plenty of Owlet-nightjars on our place north of Hobart but never 
seen one. We were checking trees we had planted, this afternoon on the north 
side of the hill and on checking one, found this roosting safely inside! The 
links to the pictures are for Flickr:

We were unaware that they would roost on the ground, more often tree stumps or 
hollows. We imagine this would be fairly unusual?
