Spotted Owlet - Birding / Wildlife

The spotted owlet is a small owl that lives in the subcontinent. The spotted owlet is a common resident of open habitats. They are very cute and very well camouflaged. They have adapted to live among humans and are found in urban areas. They are commonly found in parks and farmhouses in cities but because of their camouflage, they are not visible.

This owlet lives in small groups and mostly lives in the hollows of trees. They also make their houses in rocks and even in old buildings. In the morning they are mostly sleeping and in evening they are active. They are sleeping while sitting on a tree. As they are motionless so anybody can hardly feel their presence. During sleep they are not lazy as they are active and hear voices and respond accordingly.

These cute beauties live in my office garden. So I try to visit them daily. They are living in a group of five to six family members. As I know their home in a tree hole but still it is very difficult to find them. They are hiding behind the bushes. Still, I am able to photograph them.
