range, movement, and migration are elusive and difficult to record. Eastern Whip-poor-wills breed throughout the eastern U.S. from Northern Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina up through the northeastern U.S and southern Canada reaching Ontario and Nova Scotia. In the wintering season they migrate across the southern US to settle across the Gulf Coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Maps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutbirds.org\/guide\/Eastern_Whip-poor-will\/maps-range\">All About Birds Range Map<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/science.ebird.org\/en\/status-and-trends\/species\/easwpw1\/abundance-map\">eBird Status and Trends<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iucnredlist.org\/species\/22736393\/152619806\">IUCN Red List<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-sky-blue-neutral-background-color has-has-sky-blue-neutral-background-color-background-color has-background remove-margin-bottom is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column right-border is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Identification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Eastern Whip-poor-wills are medium-sized birds with large heads, stout chests, and long tapered tails and wings. Both male and female adult Whip-poor-wills have complicated molting patterns that provide good camouflage. When singing, a black throat and white bib are visible, breaking up their camouflage. Male and female Whip-poor-wills are patterned the same, making it difficult to tell them apart visually. During the breeding season, male Whip-poor-wills turn their namesake song <em>whip-poor-will<\/em> by repeating it. <em>Whip-poor-will<\/em> is also given as a call by both male and female individuals; they also give a short <em>quirt<\/em> to contact their mates or express agitation. They may growl, hiss, and clap their wings to protect territory and ward off predators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutbirds.org\/guide\/Eastern_Whip-poor-will\/sounds\">Listen to its songs and calls here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Habitat <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Eastern Whip-poor-wills breed in dry or evergreen deciduous forests with little to no underbrush and close to open areas. They tend to avoid areas of large uninterrupted forest. In the wintering season, they prefer broadleaf tropical or subtropical forests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conservation Status&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul
