https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zbgICX9oyoOnly if you consider that europe and north america also have fly catcher birds and they are just as cute and impressive, stealth masters and big mouth big eyed insect eaters.And they all need protection.Even tawny frogmouths.

>>4417216Tell me about the tawny frogmouths
>>4417224
>>4417227
>>4417229
>>4417231
>>4417241
>>4417224They are a bit like the australian version of Potoos/Nightjars/Owlets, they are called frogmouths and occupy the stealthy camouflaged large mouth insect eating niche there, somewhat they are apparently all related despite being species, families and continents away !
>>4417263Lol you're an owlet.
>>4417265

Why are the coolest animals always the most difficult to care for?
>>4418185Well for one you should look at the size of their mouth and their relative size, this is probably one of the thoughest little to medium sized bug eater out there, they have hot blood too so its constantly on for that insect feast, not a whole lot of humans can compete or even meet that criteria.Not only that but these guys live on the forest floor (for nightjars in the video, tawny frogmouths and potoos live in the forest canopy and try to pass themselves for tree stumps), they actively nest and rest there too and are mostly if not all nocturnal species (when it comes to owlets,nightjars, potoos, frogmouths).Its such a rare animal that its nocturnal and camouflaging habits have made it hard to gauge its conservation status for most of the species concerned.
>>4417679I fricked out when I noticed the second one
>>4418195cool, big fan of nightjars
>>4418195He's so cute but he thinks he's scary.
