The smaller Javan Frogmouth is thought to catch much of its insect food by sallying to flutter at leaves and trunks, a smaller proportion perhaps being obtained flycatcher-like in sustained flight or from the ground. Several frogmouth species use prolonged gaping in threat display, but it is also possible that similar actions are used in passive fly-trapping. It is suggested that sticky or smelly saliva facilitates this feeding method, but there are few detailed observations and more study is needed. More

Following another closer Javan Frogmouth we entered the forest. More
