Spotted Wood Owl

Gunung Pulai

Six months of endless pursuit, my wish of getting a close up shot of the Spotted Wood Owl in Gunung Pulai was granted finally, in a very unusual way. It crashed into a tree not far from where I was trying to get some flight shots of a woodpecker! 

And glad that the Owl finally took off safely 2hours later without serious injury, and surely wish to see her again soon, without the crash I hope!

"Ough!"



So I failed again in getting the flight shot of the Common Flameback! But who is complaining! :)))
