(delhibirdpix) Spot-bellied Eagle Owl from Kollam,Kerala,India

Dear friends

Here I attached the image of Spot-bellied Eagle-Owl/Forest Eagle Owl-Bubo nipalensis taken from forests of Kollam,Kerala,India during 30th January 2014.
Spot-bellied Eagleowl,a large Owl seen in broadleaved forests.The Spot-bellied Eagle-Owl is nocturnal and often spends its day hidden in dense foliage of large forest trees.This species is generally uncommon, likely needing large hunting and breeding territories and thus occurs at low densities. However, it continues to occur over a large range and is not thought to be conservation dependent. Areas where deforestation occurs are likely to be vacated by this species, which is perhaps the only widespread threat faced by this owl.This owl is noted for its strange, human-sounding call.Known as "Devil Bird' due it's blood -curdling calls at night.
I am thankful to my friend Kiran Pangode for found this bird and gave full hearted field support and encouragement.
I had an opportunity to watch this this rare /threatened nocturnal bird during day time after more than 10+years.Only heard sound in night during this period.So happy to watch this large owl for more than 45 minutes (hiding in the secondary growth) and capture this picture.An evening short after 5pm.

with warm regards

Susanth

Species : Greater Hoopoe Lark

Place : Greater Rann of Kutch, Gujarat

Date : 27 January 2014

It was a sheer delight to see this master sprinter of the salt desert. It would sprint, stop for a split second, feed on the grub mainly from any vehicle track and would run again.

Way back in 2009, I had caught a glimpse of this flycatcher in Lava, north Bengal and wasn't able to photograph it. This morning the Slaty-backed Flycatcher gave me that opportunity, having flown 700 km south from its home in the Himalayas to a busy park in south Calcutta. What a moment !
