Hi Mauricio,
It is a nightjar. They are nocturnal. They feed on flying bugs. The bill looks small. When they open it thought, the mouth is huge.

Cute birdie, but hard to discover, with the same colour at the background and the feathers. Nice photo!

Mauricio,
Any other views?

creo que es un guacharo o algo asi, es un ave nocturna, en eso si tienen razon en los otros comentarios. busca con ese nombre a ver que hay de info.

Hola.
Este animal "parece" una Gallinaciega o Guardacaminos de acuerdo con los libros "Aves del Valle de Aburrá" y "Guía de las aves de Colombia". Ya dirán los expertos cual especie de ellas es, pues es díficil su clasificación sin verlas en vuelo (eso dice el texto).
