Two weeks ago, I asked:

What's wrong with this picture?

If you're a serious birder, you'll know why this is annoying…

Two followers of this blog have the right answer: The bird on the box is not a nighthawk. It is a raptor of some sort, but nighthawks are not raptors.  I recall they may be goatsuckers. Can't make this stuff up.
