Tawny Frogmouth

[Martin Butterfield via Canberrabirds <>]

At this time of year I would suspect that means there is a nest somewhere within 100m of your clothes line.

Just spotted a pied butcher bird in the garden and have been sharing our apricot tree blossoms with many crimson and eastern rosellas.  Over the weekend saw a pair of noisy friarbirds on Red Hill, the first we’ve seen in years.  Also on Red Hill, saw spotted pardalotes among a group of superb blue wrens and heard a tawny frogmouth.  Plus the usual large number of neighbourhood satin bower birds, gang gangs and sulphur crested cockatoos.  We see gang gangs every day coming for water at our bird baths, with the record in the garden at one time being 26. The choughs are about in force too.
