## Caption

When somebody calls you an owl, but you’re actually a tawny frogmouth (Podargus strigoides).🦉

While the #tawnyfrogmouth may look similar to an owl, they are actually part of the #nightjar family. There are about 14 species of frogmouths — most have large, bright yellow eyes and a wide set beak that is yellowish to olive-gray in color.
