Hence the night sky being almost white. I did illuminate him another time with a torch (aka 'flash light' but not a camera flash) http://www.flickr.com/photos/danack/5622159548/ . Although he didn't particularly like it, he's been around since then.Danackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02601944007304070805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-80020256190450611732012-05-07T07:52:37.262-05:002012-05-07T07:52:37.262-05:00Same here re the size.

I live in Sydney and they very occasionally rest/search for mice from vantage points around the neighbourhood. Twice I've had the sensation of being watched by something, turned my head very slowly, and seen a Frogmouth about 16 inches from me just on the other side of the window.<br /><br />I've also managed to get a single <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/danack/5664649584/lightbox/" rel="nofollow">decent shot of them at night</a>. Not quite as fierce as the fish above but it is quite a 'unique' feeling having a bird of prey evaluate you for being edible at night.Danackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02601944007304070805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-39698078320330694772012-05-07T01:55:52.297-05:002012-05-07T01:55:52.297-05:00One of my favorite common names that sound like ec...One of my favorite common names that sound like eccentric insults.
