This is the 2nd time I came across this bird at Panti forest. Its a Javan Frogmouth. They are Nocturnal birds like the nightjar and owls. Finding them is not easy. It look just like another dried leaf and well camouflaged. However their distinct calls is probrably a giveaway clue of its presence. It the wee mornings just before it roost and sleep they call like a laughing ghost. Quite errie if you had not heard it before.For taking this photo, I was bitten by a leach. (same for the 1st time)
