Does anyone have a colour pattern for this elusive bird, Or a good picture ?

Joe, I can't offer any advice except what I've read suggested here before...go to www.google.com and type in Whip Poor Will, it might give you some leads. Good luck! Callynne

If you can get your hands on a copy of the Audubon field guide to eastern birds, you'll find a pretty good picture in there. ZMy scanner's busted so I can't send you a copy.

Thanks for the help. I have searched Google and VISTA but the pictures aren't much help. I am fairly new at this hobby and my problem is duplicating the colours. I have Keith Muellers' chart and it helps if you get a good 'close up'
Thanks again

You might try http://www.naturephotographers.net/index.html
and search for whip poor will under the 'Avian Forum'. I know you'll find a few close-up photos there. I think you'll have to register at the site to gain access but it's worth it and results in no spam or trouble.
Good luck
