Like many ground-nesting and/or ground-roosting birds, Common Poorwills have elaborate defense displays to discourage potential predators. In our work with them, we often witness hissing, lunging, wing displays, and flight displays to lead us away from nests. In this movie, we are examining a male Common Poorwill that we captured and outfitted with a radio transmitter. Whenever we deploy a device on an animal, we test for the animal's ability to tolerate the device. If the animal seems impaired

The Common Poorwill is a ground-dwelling, nocturnal, flying-bug-eating bird that is closely related to the Eastern Whip-poor-will. A migratory native of Montana, Common Poorwills rank among the least understood avian species. That's due largely to their love of the nightlife, a fondness for remote, rugged areas, and an almost supernatural ability to camouflage themselves during the day. These video clips catch our mysterious neighbor in two of its primary activities - eating and singing. The fir

The Common Poorwill is famous as the first known hibernating bird. When the weather cools down, like it has in South Lake Tahoe, it may enter a torpid state. While scientists published this observation in the 1940s, the Hopi people already knew this. Their name for Poorwill means ‘the sleeping one.’ Torpor is similar to hibernation, a state of lowered body temperature and metabolic activity assumed by many animals in response to adverse environmental conditions. The torpid state may last overnig

Common Poorwill release, look at that mouth! These nocturnal songbirds are often mistaken for owls but they’re actually in the nightjar family. This one was found stunned but with no significant injuries and at a good weight so it wasn’t with us long, thankfully. #wildliferehab #ojai #poorwill | The Ojai Raptor Center

Meet the Common Poorwill, a nocturnal bird from the nightjar family that is found throughout the arid west. Although some populations don’t migrate, like those in the warm southwest, northern poorwills do head to warmer climates in the winter. Peak migration is between August and October. Poorwills don’t migrate in large groups. They prefer to travel independently or in small, casual flocks, following the Rocky Mountains south to their winter home. During this time, collisions with windows are a

🤏 The Common Poorwill is the smallest North American nightjar, with short, rounded wings and a short tail with small white outer tips. In the same family as the Eastern Whip-poor-will and Chuck-will’s-widow, the Common Poorwill shares their nocturnal habits and onomatopoetic name. 🎶 Its cryptic plumage of mottled gray and brown provides excellent camouflage, and its large, dark eyes are well-adapted for vision in low light. 🌌👀 But this nightjar also has a unique behavior all its own; in fact

This common poorwill was found lost and confused in a large warehouse this morning. After a thorough checkup at Liberty Wildlife, it was determined to be in perfect health. These birds open their large mouths super wide while flying at night to catch bugs. At this time of year, you might find them nesting on the ground and their eggs blend in well with rocks. If you find a nest, block off a good circumference so they can safely hatch their babies! Best chemical-free pest control!! #poorwill #nig
