One of my friend found this Brown Wood Owl at the roadside unable to fly…so he took it back and starts to feed it…he believes it was still young and was unable to fly yet…so soon he will release it back as it was starting to fly away when I was taking this photo.

Photo taken in Sarawak, Malaysia.

They are the largest and most dominant owl in the areas in which they are found and are feared by the native population due to their aggression toward any intruder near their nesting site. Out of breeding season, they will simply fly swiftly away if disturbed, deeper into the forest and are silent and elusive. A most difficult owl to study because of the areas in which it is found and due to its normally shy behaviour.
