I'm spending some time this week doing something I rarely find time to do anymore... have some fun rendering something other than product shots. Here, I'm playing with one of my favorite sets, "Frogmouths, Nightjars & Goatsuckers". These birds sleep during the day, camouflaging themselves as "tree" branches during the day. The Puerto Rican Nightjar is endemic to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. It is an endangered species and roughly there were 1,400 to 2,000 adult individuals (before Hurricane Maria). Habitat destruction, feral house cats and introduced mongoose populations are the leading causes for their endangerment. It eats nocturnal insects, including beetles, moths and other flying insects. They forage by making fly-catching sallies from perches and hunt beneath tree canopies. Smaller prey items are probably consumed in flight, but larger insects are carried in the bill back to perch, where they are shaken and swallowed. It is typically found in semi-deciduous forest with hardwood trees and little or no ground vegetation, usually on dry, limestone soils. The moth shown is Mariamne's Giant Flag Moth native to eastern Mexico to Panama. Rendered in Firefly without no postwork. Products include Dinoraul's Trees 201204 and 201206, Songbird ReMix Frogmouths, Nightjars & Goatsuckers and Nature's Wonders Giant Moths and Moths of the World v3 by me.
