Beautiful pics today from India of the Mottled Wood Owl!

They seem to have a call and response between the male and female like the “twit twoo” of the Tawny Owl. I went through a bunch of videos that only had one owl, and it wasn’t as exciting as reading about it made it seem. It was a standard North American “hoot” mixed with a bit of Curly from The 3 Stooges.

Finally though, I found this video that has both parts, and now it is appropriately strange enough to mention.

    Rama squirrel! This is one of my favorite religious stories. It’s just so frickin adorable. But it’s ok, owls. I think Lord Ram will understand that you gotta eat too.
