"The large frogmouth..."

via u/KimCureAll

"The large frogmouth, native to southeast Asia, has variegated leaf-like plumage which provides excellent camouflage in its forest habitats. It lays a single egg on a downy cushion that would fall were it not for the incubating parent crouching lengthwise along the thin branch it typically nests on."

"Bat toes..."

via u/JMyers666

"Bat toes are specially designed to relax in a locked position. This means that when bats are clinging on to the roof of a cave or tree, they are actually relaxing their feet. It takes energy to release their grip and open up their little toes before taking off to fly in the night"
