It was just a trip home on yesterday evening. My partner and I went first to check out a couple of places where the hearing nightjars for a few days ago, but we did not hear any. When I dropped her off at home so I went to another area about 5 km away, and I managed to catch and ring my 50th nightjar and eleventh this year. All captured nightjars are photographed, and it is especially the wing being shot. The reason for this is that it is where you can see if there is one who was born last year, or an older bird. Now the night is bright logging project canceled due to unsafe weather situation, but if it does not rain and thunder here I'll take a little tour of the neighborhood because I heard one yesterday that I have not tried to catch then.
Det var den största jag fångat då måttet från vingknoge till vingspets var 213 mm.

Här har den fått sin ring och ska snart släppas.
