How can sunlight help a nightjar to hunt if it is a nocturnal bird?
How can sunlight help a nightjar to hunt if it is a nocturnal bird?
This case study looks at how energy flows through the food chain of the nightjar.
We will study what is happening inside the plants and animals cells that ultimately allow the nightjar to survive.
