Field Notes

Description:

This bird caught my attention because they have these vibrant red eyes. In this picture the bird hides behind a leaf as if to say "I'm coming...for you." But really the nightjar family primarily hunts insects, so no need to worry!

Habitat:

Located in northern Queensland at a Rainforest Wildlife Sanctuary

Notes:

To emphasize what caught my attention photo is in black and white, but I will upload the color photos as well.
