#tawnyfrogmouth — Public Fediverse posts

A Tawny Frogmouth landed on my balcony handrail a couple of evenings ago. I tried to get a photo, but, while it was happy for me to look, it saw the camera as a threat and flew off. So here's an older photo!

You’re being watched! Those eyes follow you everywhere! Tawny Frogmouths usually sleep during the day, so if you wake one you’ll get the stare.

A couple of birds on the driveway as I wandered back from the letterbox at lunchtime today.

I spied the Tawny Frogmouth first, and then an Eastern Yellow Robin landed on a branch close by and posed for a little while.

Went for a wander down the road this morning, found a damp Crimson Rosella, a busy Noisy Miner, a Magpie and a Tawny Frogmouth doing its best impression of a stick.

Tawny Frogmouths are not owls - although they look like one! They are one of my favourite birds - in spite of the angry stare!

I completely missed it at the time, but the Tawny Frogmouth chick appears to have been swooped by a Sacred Kingfisher and then reacted very strongly to it. It's incredible what you can miss if your attention lapses. #frogmouth #tawnyfrogmouth #wildoz
