A pair of Tawny Frogmouths

[DickyOZ]

This pair has returned to their winter quarters.




I'm not sure but I think the first one is the male. The bits in his feathers are from the Tea Tree bark, he was having a good scratch when I saw him but my shutter was too slow to freeze the motion.

Always enjoy viewing shots of this bird.

Me too, there's something about them

Cool shots.

I wonder why they are called Frogmouths? Nevermind I can research that question....these are cute shots but they looked bedraggled. Are they always like this?

Thanks Izzie,

Bedraggled or just feeling their age... This is the same pair two years ago.








Looking at that old folder I'd forgotten what a great job the old Fuji did with sunsets.

Well...I had seen the frogmouths from that last year shots and they are cleaner. Not that I am complaining about the bad hairdo of the original post here, I just thought I'd mentioned it..

Nice sunset, by the way...

Interesting series Richard, and No 1 has to be my favourite.
