I just saw it now during my lunch hour and on the scene were a group of birders who were discussing the id and some thought Whip-poor-will. Points to note are size, large flat head, long wings that are crossing each other over the tail, almost reaching tail tip. All those are characteristic for Chuck. The id has also been confirmed by Andrew Farnsworth. If you have the opportunity, go watch this bird. It's in an open location and you'll get great views.
