Tawny Frogmouths are often mistaken for Southern Boobooks, but are not owls. Frogmouths are members of the nightjar family, and are more closely related to kookaburras and kingfishers than to owls. Frogmouths are not raptorial birds. Tawny frogmouths share the following features with owls: they are nocturnal; they eat insects; they have large eyes; they have soft feathers for silent flight; and they have bristles or "whiskers" around their bills.
