I don't know how you bird guys do what you do, I find taking shots of my little one hard enough in terms of movement. Here is one from this morning.....constantly on the move

We used to have 2 adult Tawny Frogmouths and their chicks nest in the tree above our front entrance but sadly they have not been seen as a family for some years now.

 

We did however notice a single bird took up residence on our back fence last month.

 

I love the way he's keeping an eye out on me!!!

 

We feel so privileged again to have him visit. What a truly magnificent creature.

Here is a couple of fun ones from today, My Cockatoo has a fascination with car tyres, I always though dog did that, but not this guy, parked the 4WD in the driveway and when the front door opened he was straight out and climbed the tyre into the wheel well, I think he's slightly nuts but anyway
