Tawny Fish Owl Nanling National Forest Park, Guangdong, China
One of the biggest owls in the world and 50% taller than our own eagle owl!* This owl feeds primarily on fish, our PH Eagle Owl apparently does the same but this is the first time I've ever seen an owl in the water!
OM1-MKII with OM 100-400MM F 5.0 - 6.3 II
f6.0 | 6400 ISO | 1/20s handheld
*They're referring to the Philippine Eagle Owl if that wasn't clear, NOT the Eurasian Eagle Owl you probably pictured. Photographer is posting to a Philippine birding group. Here is the Philippine Eagle Owl, which is their largest owl.
