Thattekkad Bird Sanctuary, 10/04/2025
Captured this stunning Sri Lanka Bay Owl with my Panasonic Lumix camera!
This majestic bird is known for its distinctive bay- colored plumage and haunting calls. Found in dense forests, the Sri Lanka Bay Owl is a nocturnal hunter, using its acute hearing and exceptional night vision to catch prey.
Thattekkad Bird Sanctuary, with its lush forests and diverse wildlife, provides an ideal habitat for this rare and elusive species.
Glad to have spotted this beauty in its natural habitat.
Totally! These guys might be a little creepy if they were big owls, but they are pretty tiny. If aliens were this big I don’t think we’d fear them all that much.
