Tawny FrogmouthPodargus strigoidesFamily: Podargidae (Australian Frogmouths, 3 species in Australia) The Tawny Frogmouth is around a lot but not that often seen. It is noctural and sleeps in the day, with its body extended to look like a log. Its position, stillness and colouring combine to make it very hard to see. They have a strange call, which is kind of creepy, that goes "oo oo oo oo oo oo...". They are not owls although many people think that they are, because they fly at night and they eat small animals (like an owl), and they kind of look like and owl.
