Wildlife and Wildlife Photography - Brown Fish Owl, TATR, Dec'14


Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve is India's second most tiger population, after Ranthambore National Park. Its a heaven for wildlife photographers. Tigers, leopards and even many birds you can spot. It has a huge area and many gates from where you can drive in. The timings are 6:00 hrs to 11:00 hrs and 15:00 hrs to 19:00 hrs, depends upon the season.

Tigers as they say are spotted regularly. Wildlife has been flourishing since December 2014. Two years and many new cubs are born and this year's summer has seen an amazing wildlife being spotted and also in new generations of rulers of the Central India's forests. New wildlife sanctuaries have come up like Bor Wildlife Sanctuary, Nagzira Tiger Reserve, Tipeshwar Wildlife Sanctuary and the most flourishing one is Umred Karhandla Wildlife Sanctuary, these are in Central India. Sathyamangalam Wildlife Sanctuary is yet to open to public, but it has started and few farm houses nearby do give facility of Jeep Safari. Sathyamangalam is from Tamil Nadu and shares the Nilgiri Bioreserve.

Brown Fish Owl is a nocturnal owls like others, but can be seen in day as well. It has ear tufts coming out like horns on its head. It normally preys on fishes, but can feed on lizards, rats, snakes and sometimes large rodents as well.

It sits on tip of the tree and focuses on prey and then pounces on it. It is not very easy to spot them as they are best camouflagers and can easily camouflage sitting on a tree. One might not be able to spot because their eyes are closed and that's even fools it's prey and predators. .


Now we were in the morning safari, when we saw the sub adult Brown Fish Owl giving various poses and it looked as if it was angry with us and was showing off and was sulking even. The images will itself speak ..........................
