The eye of the frogmouth


With the frogmount by night I wrote 'see the shutter in the left corner of it's eye' but realised it was not good to see. Hope this is better.

Bird cannot blink like we do. Instead there is an elastic membrane that slides over the eye. Here it's the dark piece in the corner. Starting to shut or almost open.....

The other one is with the eye wide open.
