After spending the a very nice and exciting day with the OFO group, led by
John Miles,
we went to Wheatly campground for the night with my wife Marienna and stayed
at our
campsite which was at Highland campground # 212.
We started hearing the Chuck-Will's-Widow's call  shortly after nine a
clock.
It seemed to have come from across the marsh from the wooded area.
It kept calling with short little breaks until 10:00 PM.
I did not hear it after. Nice finish of a nice birding day.
