Nightjar sketch | Limited edition fine art print from an original drawing.

Nightjars are master birds of camouflage with cryptic plumage that lets them blend seamlessly into the forest floor. Historically, they were called 'goatsuckers' due to the old folklore belief that they sucked milk from goats at night. These nocturnal insectivores hunt on the wing, using wide mouths to catch flying insects.
