Some species have developed spectacular tails and wing adornments, but the majority are fairly uniform in appearance, making their identification a stern test.Written by the world's leading nightjar expert, Nigel Cleere, this new book focuses on these elusive birds alongside frogmouths, potoos, owlet-nightjars and Oilbirds.
