Why it matters
The Dusky Nightjar is a rare inhabitant of the high-elevation forests in Costa Rica and western Panama, prized by birders for its elusive, nocturnal nature and restricted geographic range. It is easily distinguished from other nightjars by its uniquely rounded wings and distinctively notched tail, features that reflect its specialized adaptation to montane habitats.
