I have not heard that from a Tawny Frogmouth. The sound I’ve heard was very quiet, but I forget how to describe it.

Several recordings at Graham Chapman’s site, link

Yeah that’s them, I don’t know where I got the hissing sound from.

I had a pair of tawnies that raised a number of broods in my old gum tree over a few years, so I have definitely heard the hissing as well as other odd noises from them in addition to the lovely low oooom oooming.

This article says so too!

Tawny frogmouths are quite vocal at night and have a range of calls from deep grunting to soft “wooing”. When threatened, they make a loud hissing sound.
