Keep an eye on the trees…

Tawny Frogmouths, those quiet, owl-like birds with incredible camouflage, have been seen in the trees here. If you're lucky, you might spot one perched like a branch during the day, or hear their soft calls in the evening. A little local magic, right from your deck and the inspiration behind the name Tawny Rest.
