I think this may be the last shot of the chicks before fledging. They are two weeks old and no longer sitting together. I saw the mother nighthawk flush when I walked to the "nest" and could easily spot one chick, but not the other. I got a sick feeling in my stomach that something had happened to the other chick, but it was about 3 feet away and under a fir tree.
