Tawny Frogmouth

Podagrus stigoides

Mottled grey-brown plumage provides excellent camouflage, allowing them to seemingly disappear on a tree limb. They are nocturnal, meaning they are active at night. Tawny Frogmouths are found in the woodlands of Australia, where they prey on small vertebrates and insects.
