Pretty cool find. I hear them quite often but never see one.

I'm no "birder", but technically I think it's a Chuck-Will's-Widow.

They know how to play the camo game, that's for sure. Mossy Oak ain't got nothing on them. I hope you don't mind me adding a photo of one of my favorite birds we used to call the Bullbat!!!! Baker

Great photo. I bet you were surprised seeing it there on the nest.

Great pics, I have never seen one that I know of. Was listening to the sound about a week ago at our lease and wondered about the bird. Thanks!
