[alienkilla22]

[grendelmum]

@llamylama

Actually, if you read the description, you would have seen that these birds were in REHABILITATION with a licensed wildlife rehabilitator with WIRES (Wildlife Information Rescue & Education Service). They may look like they're in a "zoo" but they were in care for a short period of time prior to being released back into the wild.

[Raptor3946]

Are Tawny Frogmouths owls?

[tumblytumbler]

@Raptor3946 No, they are not. They are members of the Caprimulgiforme order along with nightjars and pootoos.

[PeonyMai]

@Raptor3946 Tawny Frogmouths are a type of nightjar.

[adamthebIessed]

i found a tawny on the roadside, injured. took home. it wont fly away. gave some worms, insects and fish meat. it behave like a baby bird. opens its mouth and eat whatever i give. next day, it layed an egg, just like a chicken egg, but much smaller and pale white. what should i do?? it does feed and drink, but wont sit on the egg. i did leave a flat bowl with straw grass clippings and place the egg on it.

[Nesaru]

From left to right.

"Look kids! Humans!"

"What, what? Where, let me see! Do something funny you silly human things! They're boring, they're just standing there watching us!"

"Ooooooooooooooooh woooooooooooooow. Look at that one, its got some shiny box thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing."

"I knooow, so awesoooome~"

[Iananan]

[WESTSIEEDE]

[ShadowPhantazy]

oh my god they're so adorably retarded looking I love them :3

[onemoreterm]

They look wide awake to me for nocturnal owls. The "Possum Lady" who rescues wildlife, is currently rearing 8 froggies from one abandoned nest.

Thanks for posting this

Cheers

[ishouldplayzelda]

@onemoreterm actually... they're not owls

[onemoreterm]

@ishouldplayzelda Really? You're not going to tell me they're frogs are you? LOL What are they then?

[ishouldplayzelda]

@onemoreterm just a type of wide-mouthed bird

[tect0nik1panda]

[yankee999]

The third from the left looks like it saw something shocking

[kuraisong]

@yankee999

"YOU SAID WHAT???!!!"

[MagusEldred]

@yankee999 =O

[gwarscumdog]

@yankee999 lol

[fatmoocow]

wanna straight up chill w/ dem birds

[darkstar3472]

this is why birds are one of my favorite animals youll never know what species your gonna get

[JuanLeTwnz]

#3 is totally stunned. Even forgot to close its mouth.

[djalienne]

geez they are stunning, and for the record not owls...they have their own class in taxonomy because of the differences to owls, the large beak is one, and the fact they only eat insects (unlike owls which also can eat animals)is another, cant remember all the rest!

[JuanLeTwnz]

The frogmouths are a family.

A new class would be a groundbreaking discovery :D

[thefather1961]

The second one from the right is like "BACK OFF MAN, JUST BACK OFF!" lol They are so precious, I love owls. The one on the far right is like "I got this man I got this", but as you can see he doesn't move an inch LOL SO FUNNY !!! More please

[NinesTempest]

OMG They're so cyooooooooooooote :3

[alicia2r18]

hah cute

[busterpiggle]

They look like muppets!

[jjws]

the second from the right is FASCINATED by the camera

[onomiyaki]

Nice puppets.

[malbecks316]

Oh my God, they are looking at me. Theeeeey are looooking at meeeeeeeeee!

They are, all of them, pretty cute. 2nd from right is my favorite. He looks like me.

[TheAffableWrenskini]

It's not just the expressions, it's the mannerisms. The third one is leaning back into his slightly-less-yet-still-shocke­d-friend, glancing down then back up to size up the marvel then MORE shocked.

The first is scientifically interested in the strange sight. If he had a hand he'd be stroking that beardpuff he's got there.

And the second one is just stoned out of his mind.

[elpoptart]

hahaha, #2 is totally freaking out

[lemonylimpe]

ill ugly

[muppetspuppets]

no way.... beautiful! I love the one we're caring for.

[lemonylimpe]

[muppetspuppets]

thats ok, I guess I wouldn't want to wake up with one beside me in bed. lol

[lemonylimpe]

These birds look like they are amazed by everything they see, every single second of their life. Love it! XD

[candyhotpocket]

These must be Jim Henson's final gift from beyond the grave?

[radiofingernail]

[meyouandsarahoo]

[mayombe2001]

I first saw one of these birds at the Minnesotta Zoo last year. Until then, I did not even know they existed. I thought they were owls at first, or some sort of hawk. I had to go back to the zoo again just to see them and find out what they were...so cool...I wish we had them wild in Minnesota.

[fivegurl]

WOW....they are beautiful....how cute..looks like job well done..keep up the great work!!

I have a vid here of some chicks i hand raised....arent they so sweet!!!

[RogueFangee]

Good work, they do look healthy,

[RogueFangee]

Wow smilling little buddies, one up the end looks big, hope they have the pleasure of taking flight soon :D
