Media notes
Adult and juvenile. Remarks: A lovely forest owl that eluded me for a long time. The adult of the southern race has a nice almost orange facial disc that is unbarred. The Himalayan version is bigger with a darker and heavily barred disc. The juvenile (which this parent seems to be protecting!) retains a white head for many months. Eldhose had tracked this family in a pepper and cardamon estate near Munnar. - RS. Equipment: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV + 500mm + 1,4x + monopod. Date added to OBI: April 22, 2011. Original OBI location name: near Munnar, Kerala, India.
