Large-tailed Nightjar is very common at the lowland area of KK.
During our 3-day visit, a LTN was seen every night calling at the top of a wiring post just beside our hotal.

Every morning (around 5:30am - we needed to get up at 4:30am every day) while we entered the park (at the location between 1km and 5km), many LTN were seen just sitting at the road side or even at the middle of the road. The highest daily count of it is over 10.
