Raptor-211 : Balcony Biodiversity : Amazing Wildlife of India by Renu Tewari and Alok Tewari (Tyto alba, Turdoides striata)

A huge Barn Owl
He did not exactly
arrive at balcony ...

... but was visible
from the balcony

... perched in a
Eucalyptus tree in the
neighborhood garden ...
No one has ever reported
one in our area ...

... located in the
very busy
residential/ commercial
part of Delhi ...

A gang of Jungle babblers
House Crows ... and
Brown-headed Barbet
were trying their best
to evict poor fellow ...

... it was their
racket, that drew our
attention to him ...
