Well that's weird we were shown this exact video in Biology on monday... Weird coincidence or worldwide conspiracy?

Freaky owl though. Spesh in Dracula state. I much preferred the big eagle for looks, sorta like an eagle/hawk.

With skills like that it must be a worldwide conspiracy ;)

Never seen that type of owl before, but http://www.owlpages.com/owls.php?location=Asia

may be able to identify it?


[edit] Maybe it's an Indian Scops Owl?

Looks like an Eagle Owl, can't say the markings look like those of a Eurasian one though.

And the "dracula owl" is a Northern White-faced Scops Owl, called Popo haha.

Fascinating creature!
