Brown Wood Owl : True Colours

30th October 2011, Fraser’s Hill, Pahang.

 

I wouldn’t have known that she was there had it not been for  a helpful  caretaker of a house who pointed out her position. It was an ideal perch along a quiet stretch of the Telekom Loop, a sheltered branch of a large tree and dimly lit … perfect for an owl during daytime.

It is the same species of Owl which I photographed  at nightime in front Jelai Resort a few weeks earlier. The colours are just so different in daylight.

Half asleep,  I don’t think she’d welcome any kind of disturbance.
