Spotted Wood Owl

Strigiformes - Strigidae - Strix seloputo (Hantu Carek Kafan)

Large owl with an orange face and big inky-black eyes. Adult is brown with extensive thin barring on the underparts. Juvenile is whitish, with barring all over the body. The closely related Brown Wood-Owl is much darker in adult plumage, with a thinly barred brown breast, and its juvenile plumage is whiter, relatively unmarked, with a more contrastingly dark brown face. Spotted Wood-Owl prefers open forests, and can sometimes be seen on fairly conspicuous perches, even when roosting. Hoots loudly and sonorously, with pairs frequently duetting.
(eBird)




Song of duality unspooked by intrusion.



 

* Humility's virtue - when the great yields to the minor, and the minor corresponds fittingly, both benefit
- benefit of action and awareness -

Comply with heaven

 



Well excels as a warrior,
the one is not warlike.
Well fights
the one is not wrathful.
Well conquers the enemy,
the one is not quarrelsome.
Well employs the people,
the one renders himself lowly.
This is called not-quarreling's virtue.
This is called the employing of men's ability.
This is called complying with Heaven.
Since olden times the most perfect.
