1. A security light having an adjustable spherical motion sensor, comprising:
a luminaire housing including at least one lamp head, a mounting portion, and a support;
a spherical shroud, wherein the shroud has a lens opening;
a rotation limiter extending from the spherical shroud and received within the luminaire housing, the spherical shroud rotatable relative to the luminaire housing along a first rotation axis and a second rotation axis;
the rotation limiter interfacing at least one rotational stop in the luminaire housing for restricted rotation along the first rotation axis;
a lens covering the lens opening of the spherical shroud and generating a horizontal field of view;
a motion detection unit mounted within the spherical shroud and behind the lens, the motion detection unit having an optical field of view for motion detection through the lens; and
wherein the motion detection unit has a motion detection horizontal field of view through the lens of at least 200 degrees.
