Whippoorwills
When I was a kid, here in South Jersey, we had Whippoorwills.
The summer night would be ROARING with the chant of whippoorwills, and then you turn on the porch light...silence.
Turn it off again and one by one they start chanting again until hundreds of them are chanting in sync.
Really haunting...
I really miss that.
Havnt heard a single one in twenty years or more.
