European Nightjar

Caprimulgus europaeus

Description:

Plumage is light grey with strikes of buff and black.

Habitat:

Mountainous desert, very arid area with very few vegetation.

Notes:

That bird smashed itself on the wall of my room and woke me up. Fortunately material used was soft enough not to arm it. Few minutes later it took off.
