Somewhere outside my window is a tawny frogmouth, or mopoke, poking his mo’ for all he’s worth every few seconds.
Late Edit:”Mopoke” can be a frogmouth, and they are often found round here. Their call, however, is a sort of “Moop-Moop-Moop-Moop”. My visitor was the OTHER sort of Mopoke; the Southern Boobook Owl.
