Here is a shot of a Tawny Frogmouth with her 2 chicks (most people don't see the well-camouflaged adult). It was taken high in a tree in eucalyptus forest near Canungra, south-east Queensland.
Critique and comments welcome
Cheers

Can you see mum? (Tawny Frogmouth with 2 chicks)
Hi all,
Here is a shot of a Tawny Frogmouth with her 2 chicks (most people don't see the well-camouflaged adult). It was taken high in a tree in eucalyptus forest near Canungra, south-east Queensland.
Critique and comments welcome Cheers Michael
Awesome. The chicks really make the shot.
 The adults aren't the most photgenic birds around  Cheers

Mark and Andrew,
Thanks for comments. Yeah, the chicks are cute, aren't they? Amazing how close you can get without the parents leaving their chicks. Very protective parents, that's for sure. Cheers Michael
Amazing shot..well spotted. The chicks draw you towards the amazingly camoflagued parent.
One evening I was sitting out on the verandah and a frogmouth flew down and sat on a verandah post about 12 foot away. I didn't move and it didn't move for about half an hour. Congrats on an outstanding photo.
another nice one michael.

Great image. I can only congratulate on your patience to get an image like this. I take it you climbed a tree.
