European Nightjar (Caprimulgus europaeus). These birds are Nocturnal and active at dusk and dawn (crepuscular) but are elusive day time roosters. While walking around the Asprokremmos car park area we came across one in it's typical daylight roosting position on a branch. Handing the camera to Jan as she had better line of sight she managed these shots. This bird even managed a scratch before sleeping again.
