Last night I was excited to hear chuck's-will-widow calling. We live in a suburban area in Maryville, surrounded by agricultural/hay fields, and I don't hear them regularly. Last year I remember hearing them about 3 different times. I'm guessing that they are just passing through. I don't really know what habitat they use. I'm guessing scrubby/forest area based on the places I've heard them while birding. Can someone help me clarify that?
