Distribution and Habitat
The eared nightjars are found from China through Southeast Asia to Australia. Tropical populations are mostly sedentary, but the two Australian species (Spotted and White-throated Nightjars), and Great Eared Nightjars from the north of their range are partial migrants. These are birds of open woodland or forest clearings and edges.
