Tawny Frogmouth Guestbook

From the lens Tawny Frogmouth - a fascinating australian bird.

I think the tawny frogmouth is full of character and charm. I hope you find them as interesting as I do. You can leave me your thoughts and messages here.

Thanks for visiting my Tawny Frogmouth lens.

    I love birds and I am always eager to learn of another bird. This one is interesting and the fact that they spend their lives as couples is so special. I will share it today on Valentine's Day as a sweetheart story. Thanks

    Oh, I think they are fabulous! What a wonderful creature to have in your own back yard. Some day I am just going to have to come to Australian to see all of the marvelous animals you have there.

    They do have so much expression in their mouths, or beaks...amazing! Thanks for sharing this informative lens with us.

    This is a wonderful lens and great subject. One of these fabulous birds took up residence in my daughter's backyard recently. Congrats on Purple Star. *-*Blessed*-* and featured on Sprinkled with Stardust and also on Quiz: How Much Do You Know About Australia

    Your Australian bird lenses are doing well with the purple stars. Hope to see more soon!
    Some of my favorites when we lived there was the zebra finch and the galah. I liked the honey-eaters too.

    I don't know if my comment went through before, but I did enjoy the video and I think your tawny frogmouth is cute. At first I did think it was a kind of owl.

    What an interesting bird. I loved the video you shared. I thought the tawny frogmouth was cute and had quite an expressive face.

    Thanks for introducing the tawny frogmouth to me :). I would like to understand more how these birds, which are no owls, developed so very similar features to owls even in their voices..
  • BevsPaper May 4, 2010 @ 6:45 am | delete
    Well, I have to agree with you...I don't think the Tawny Frogmouth is an ugly bird. They are most amazing in their ability to hide in their habitat. Thanks for sharing this information about them.

    Awww. I think the tawny frogmouth is a cute bird, too. They do look like owls. :)

    What a cute little bird, and it does look like an owl :) I am always fascinating with the birds of other countries, so this was very enjoyable.

    Love this great lens. The Tawny Frogmouth is a fascinating creature! I am amazed at how they can "hide" in the bark of a tree. 5stars!

    I came back to give this wonderful lens about the Tawny Frogmouth an *~*~ Angel Blessing ~*~*
  • WindyWinters Apr 11, 2010 @ 4:55 am | delete
    I haven't seen this bird before but I agree they are very cute. The feathers blend in so well with bark. These birds remind me of small hawks. Thanks for introduction to cute Australian bird. :)

    I just love your tales from Australia. It's always so interesting to read and learn about wildlife indigenous to a country so far away from me. The Tawny Frogmouth does look a bit like an owl. I think it is an attractive bird! The most fascinating fact is how they use their 'camouflage' markings to hide and protect themselves. The photos of the pair against the tree bark was a perfect example -- I had to really look closely to see them hiding there! Thanks so much for telling me about a bird I'd never see or know about otherwise.

    Tawny's are gorgeous!
  • LaraineRose Apr 7, 2010 @ 11:43 pm | delete
    When I first saw this bird in your lens, I thought that it looked a lot like our small barn owl. As I read, I saw that indeed it is an owl. We have a huge owl that serenades us at night with his twoot tawoo. Do you have those too? Great 5* lens!
  • oztoo Apr 8, 2010 @ 3:01 am | delete
    Actually Laraine they are not owls but are related to the nightjar family. I should have mentioned that somewhere. I'll do so shortly. We do get other owls but none that go twoot tawoo.

    Oh how cute! I never heard of the Tawny Frogmouth before, and I probably would never have seen them in all that camouflage if I hadn't read about them here. Great job!
  • JoyfulPamela Apr 5, 2010 @ 8:06 am | delete
    Very interesting bird! Adding to by bird lens. :D
  • WordCustard Apr 5, 2010 @ 5:06 am | delete
    What wonderful creatures you have in Australia. I did enjoy reading about the Tawny Frogmouth and what amazing camouflage too.
  • GonnaFly Apr 3, 2010 @ 5:50 pm | delete
    Great lens on a fascinating bird. They certainly camouflage well!

I love the way the Tawny Frogmouth camouflages itself. Just blends in so well with it's surroundings. more »
