Tawny Frogmouth eating Green Tree Frog at Bundaberg Queensland

[Trevor Quested <>]

This evening at 6.30pm in Bundaberg I heard a strange squealing in our garden. 
I noticed some movement and saw a Tawny Frogmouth had hold of a large Green 
Tree Frog (Litoria caerulea) by the leg and was bashing it against the 
horizontal branch. The noise went on for about five minutes before the frog 
went silent. The Frogmouth ate the frog.
I hadn't thought frogs were a part of this bird's diet. Green Tree Frogs are 
very common here.
