However the Magadagascar nightjar's natural habitats are the moist lowland and montane forests, they are among the happy inhabitants of Aldabra.
It is a landbird, leading a nocturnal lifestyle, and feeding on insects. They almost always roost on the ground, and their excellent camouflage keeps them safe against predators (and tortoise - see our earlier port :) ) and helps them in the "hunt for prey". Photo: SIF FB |
