Any notice of whippoorwills farther north in VT?

Rob was fond of listening to these birds when he was growing up in Saxton's River in the 30s but has not heard them since he returned to VT in the past decade.? Rob and Kay in Hinesburg

     I was listening to, and enjoying, the Baltimore orioles singing across the 
road yesterday while cleaning and putting up fresh feeders along with the 
hummingbird feeder.  Shortly thereafter, I saw the meteoric flight of something 
through the yard that was too big and fast to be a beetle and too small to be a 
bird.  My hummer is back!  I also heard my FOY Whippoorwills up on Miller Hill 
last night.  Miller Hill is out RT.73 and just west of Brandon.
