I thought a “nightjar” might be another name for a medieval chamber pot.

Pretty Bird Ping!

First thought was that a ‘nightjar’ might have been some ancient chamber pot that someone tossed in the trash bin, LOL!

Nightjar? A bird?

Sounded much more like some odd bit of pottery that needed cleaning out before putting back in the nightstand...

What kind of self respecting Bird just sits there, and allows himself to be caught by the random human being?

Lost Fledging, recently kicked out of the Nest? or maybe temporarily stunned from flying into a glassy building? Put a Turban bandage of his poor, feathered head.

I thought they were talking about an archaeological discovery of an ancient Chamber-Pot.

Discovered behind a bin by a pub they found a bird she described as “almost extinct” in Northern Ireland.

If only the birds would stop drinking....
