Rick, these mobile phone cameras are getting better every day and yours isn't even the latest one. Maybe the bird was stoned on something it ate the night before !

Bob, your capture a few years back is one of that classic Tawny Frogmouth pose that's trying to disguise itself as a tree branch. On focusing the mirror lens, I really should be using a mono pod at least. If there's low light, a combination of a long focal length and a fixed f8 aperture, limits you from using fast shutter speeds to avoid movement.
