They may look like small soft owls, but they are a completely different kind of bird! If you don’t know what they are yet, it’s time to meet the frogmouths, which are similar to the owls that live in Australia, Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent. These nocturnal birds have large mouths, many fluffy feathers and their chicks are so adorable that they are melting our hearts.
We have collected some of the cutest pictures of baby frogmouths on the Internet. The frogmouths are named after the large, flattened hooked beaks and wide, frog-like mouths. Ironically, the birds’ diet consists partly of, yes, you guessed it, frogs.
Check out the adorable photos below!
