Caption: The image of this super cute 'Mottled Wood Owl' was clicked at Lal Bagh, Bangalore in morning time. From quite far I can see people who came for morning walk were looking at a tree with interest. I went near to the tree & can see this guy sitting pretty in the branch trying to absorb with all were happening around it. I was fortunate to have my DSLR ready, point towards it, waited for eye contact & clicked the beauty.
