hi Jon,
fantastic shot of this Tawny Frogmouth. The pose you've caught has a real cartoony feel to it.. looks like a character out of an up-coming 3d animation or something.
nice focus and fantastic lighting, especially since they are nocturnal generally. was this in the wild? nice one!

Hello Jon
This is really a curious bird to me! I had never seen it. I don't know how its mouth looks open, but so seen it doesn't look so big. I think this bird is how I should imagine a bird with beard and moustache, ha,ha!
Good shot.
Greetings

Hi Jon,
These frogmouths have a very unique look, and this profile POV has shown it very well..Good details and the OOF green BG works well.
I like it :)

Hi Jon,
Wonder how i missed this fabulous shot along with all the other beautiful shots in your gallery. Well better late than never.:)Or else it would ahve been a great loss. i loved each and every shot in your gallery. You have got a pretty god collection of birds. This frogmouth shot is excellent. i agree that they are not the" beautiful" kind of bird, but i have always been fascinated by them.The best thing i like about them is their eyes.They are very expressive, no? Your picture is excellent with good sharpness and details. I loved the expression and the pose captured.
Thanks for the share,
Smitha.
