Never sure of nightjars without seeing wing and tail patterns, but I think this is a Square-tailed Nightjar (Caprimulgus fossii) |

Grey colour points towards both European Nightjar and Rufous-cheeked Nightjar. Neck appears to be grey, so could well be European nightjar. Difficult to confirm without description of wing and tail pattern |
