Whip and Nighthawk appear equal in size. That's it. Sufficient, concise. "to each other" is redundant.

"appear equal in size to each other" - They don't appear equal to each other but to us, when they are seen on a branch or in a nest...

D says as if they are looking at eachother !

This is what I feel !

Correct me if I am wrong !

appear equal in size to each other when sitting on a branch or in a nest, in the air, the Common Nighthawk appears much larger due to its greater wingspan.

appear equal in size to one another when sitting on a branch or in a nest, in the air, the Common Nighthawk appears much larger due to its greater wingspan. Due to=Caused By. Hence in this case wrong usage.

appear equal in size when sitting on a branch or in a nest; in the air, the Common Nighthawk appears much larger because of its greater wingspan. Not Clear whether the observer has to sit on the branch/nest or the birds have to.

appear equal in size to each other when they are sitting on a branch or in a nest, in the air, the Common Nighthawk appears much larger because of its greater wingspan. Each other is redundant because it is already clear that the comparison is between the two birds.

appear equal in size when they are seen on a branch or in a nest, in the air, the Common Nighthawk appears much larger because of its greater wingspan



Hence E.
