In late morning as I was walking through the woods, a large bird was flushed The bird was just above eye level and 20 feet away The bird was looking at me The bird very slowly turned away from me The back and tail plumage told me it was an adult bird The bird slowly dropped to the forest floor-Chuck-will’s-widow
I returned the next day at the same time I observed it flying 2 feet above the forest floor I assume there are young present
I usually see them along Rte 278 before dawn The bird is getting minerals from the limestone
