Frogmouth - Female

Thattekad, Kerala, 3 Mar 2006

These frogmouths do not move in presence of humans, because they think we cannot see them (which is true most of the time). However, when we go out of their sight, they will move slowly and slightly to keep an eye on us. Here I was getting behind this bird to shoot the back view, but she turned slightly to keep an eye on me.
