Love nightjars. Big fan of how their beak looks like it has another pair of tiny eyes above it, like this is a large elaborate bird suit for a smaller bird.

Also important to note, nightjars are related to our favorite, the Potoo bird-screm1 bird-screm-2

Science isn't ready for questions like that.

Don't they sleep in caves too? Weird goose is weird.
