Title: Grey Nightjar 'Caprimulgus indicus': First Australian Record
Abstract: A Grey Nightjar Caprimulgus indicus spent the night of 25/26 December 2003 resting aboard an Australian Customs Vessel moored at Ashmore Reef in the Timor Sea. The bird was identified from photographs received from the officer who found the bird. A submission by the author to the Birds Australia Rarities Committee, Case no. 450, resulted in acceptance of the report; this paper documents the occurrence, the first record of the species for Australia.
