No advice but I had the same situation a couple of months ago. My cat had a tussle with it and there were feathers everywhere but it seemed like he won. I just opened up everything and put an umbrella over my head.
He kept swooping me until eventually he found the big open doors to the balcony.

Keep him. You’ll never have rodent issues again.

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately tawny frogmouth of the saintly days of yore;
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—
Perched upon a box of jenga just above my chamber door—
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

And the frog mouth, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On a pallid knockoff Jenga just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a curlew that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Hand him the keys, its *his* house now…
I do love the look he’s giving- absolutely mean-mugging the camera

This happened to me too! I was very excited about the visit! I ended up just turning the lights off, opening the windows more, going to bed and letting it find its way out after a few hours of flapping about. They’re a good omen I think. It definitely did poop on my couch though soooo. Not much help sorry haha

Open all windows and doors, put a towel or piece of thick fabric over your hand and start moving towards it from the opposite side of the window as to act like you’re going to pick the bird up with the towel. It will likely get scared before you can make contact and take flight looking for an immediate exit. If he is unable to find a quick exit, or starts becoming disoriented from hitting into things, then you will likely need to actually catch him in the towel. That will require a lot quicker and swift movement. If you’re not used to a birds flight movements, then you’ll likely be chasing the bird back and forth for some time which will only frustrate you and frighten the bird. Just open all exits and try to encourage the bird into flying in the direction you want.

Open a door in a line of sight with your new feathered friend. Put a light source out beyond the door. Car lights or garage/verandah lights. Turn off the lights in the house. He/she will leave
creswitch on
Close all the curtains and doors that lead to other rooms. Just leave one door open that leads to outside. Turn all the lights off. Hopefully he will fly out by himself (might take a few hours), if not then herd him toward the open doorway while speaking in a calm and reassuring voice. It’s important to close curtains so they don’t injure themselves by flying into windows.

Tawnies are nocturnal, so they have good night vision. Your best bet is to throw a towel over them and then just bring him outside.
They can’t bite hard either so don’t worry too much about that!

Put a light outside the main door or window so they can see how to get out

Pretty sure it’s his house now, so it’s actually you who has to leave.
The door is just below him in case you needed help.

Do not scare it too much, it may use its defensive faecal spray…apparently it’s absolutely rancid.

If I learned anything from Labyrinth, and I certainly hope I have by the number of times I’ve watched it, that is actually the goblin king in disguise. Have you tried saying “You have no power over me!” a few times at it’s gorgeous but clearly incorporeal form?

Just leave him be, he’ll go when ready.

Pull out one jenga brick at a time. When the tower falls over he will bolt

Make sure you turn off any ceiling fans that you may have! Best of luck to him finding his way home…🤞

Tell him you need to start charging rent. He may leave immediately.
