Co-ordinated Nightjar search

The Nightjar is not known to breed in our area but then again how many possible sites have been checked? With the general increase in this species comes the possibility that it may now occur in Calderdale in some underwatched location. It has been suggested that if enough of us were prepared to put in the effort we could check potential areas in a co-ordinated search one evening perhaps then all meeting together (in a pub?) afterwards to compare findings. Friday 1st July has been put forward as a date, anyone interested contact either myself or Matt Bell, please bear in mind I shall be out of Calderdale from tommorrow until Monday evening so initial contact with Matt might be advisable.
