Hello Ohio Birders, I agree with Jim Glover that whippoorwills are not common in Clintonville (where I also live) but they are more frequent during migration than our records indicate because they call less frequently on migration than when on territory. I have not seen any yet this season, but I have found them during the day in past years by scrutinizing large horizontal tree branches especially at the edges of open areas (e.g. Greenlawn Cemetery, Whittier Peninsula in Colukbus) or just after dark foraging around lights. (Maybe I encounter them because both the whippoorwills and I are looking for large moths.) Happy birding, Dave Horn ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
