Quoting Bob W-PDML : I reckon when God was making all the animals he took a look at a lot of them and thought, 'jeez I shouldn't have had that second glass of communion wine at breakfast. Still, it's good enough for Australia. What d'ya reckon, Sheila? I mean, Mary?'. Whaddya mean? Frogmouths are beautiful! I'm glad He (or She) sent them our way.

Re: OT PESO - Friends
Quoting Ken Waller : Nice capture. Reminds me of the smaller owls I've seen. Approximately how big are they? Are they both mature ? Thanks for the comment, Ken. A mature frogmouth is about barn owl size - the larger one in the photo is mature; the smaller one about half grown - not sure if the two birds are related. Frogmouths are much like owls in habit - they're nocturnal, fly silently and prey on insects etc. Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: "Brian Walters" Subject: OT PESO - Friends Tawny Frogmouths have to be my favourite Australian native birds.
