Crested Owl from Peru.

Only species of the genus Lophostrix, from the Greek lophos= crest, and strix= owl.

If one looks closely, you can identify then from their ear tufts. 😉

The adult crested owls can either be a lighter reddish brown or a dark chocolate brown.

I’ll post some other photos of his in the comments.
