I believe that is what's left of a Tawny Frogmouth.

Hi All

 

I hope this message gets through with attachments. I recently found the remains of a bird in a fairly substantial block of forest south of Moe in Gippsland, VIC. I imagine it was killed or scavenged by an introduced predator - perhaps a fox. I should have added something more to the photograph to help with scale but the pile of feathers indicated a fairly large bird.

 

Any ideas? An owl or raptor?
