Adorable mother & chick Northern #potoo (Nyctibius jamaicensis jamaicensis) 📸 Brazsie Burke 📍Time & Patience #Lindstead 🇯🇲 #endemic #Jamaican race. Locally called #Patoo the same is used to describe owls. Potoo is not an owl but is a nocturnal insectivore, they use their large mouths to gulp flying beetles, roaches & moths in mid-air. They roost during the day staying still camouflaged in trees. They lay their single egg on large branches and the chick is a white fluffy puffball #wildjamaica
Footage shows the potoo bird standing on a wooden post perfectly camouflaged into the material in Brazil. The video, taken by Vanderlei Benites Scalabrim, shows the bird standing perfectly still.
