Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Large, solemn-looking brown owl with deep black eyes. Varies in plumage throughout its extensive range but always has a dark-bordered pale face, fine barring on wings and underparts, and sooty areas around the eyes. Inhabits lowland and montane broadleaf forests and adjacent edges. Gives a short burst of loud, reverberating hoots.
