The chirruping nightjar or kayumanggi nightjar (Caprimulgus griseatus) is a species of nightjar found in Philippines. Two subspecies are recognised: C. g. griseatus and C. g. mindanensis.[1] It was once considered conspecific with the savanna nightjar, while it is significantly different in vocalization.[2]
