A Common Pauraque (Nyctidromus albicollis) calls in the early evening at the "El Pizote" in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca (Costa Rica), 6/22/99, 5:40 PM. I had seen this guy earlier that morning, as I walked near his ground roost in a derelict cacao plantation. He apparently never strayed far from that spot, as these recordings were made 12 hours later only a few meters from where I had spotted him.
