Vik's Gallery:   Southern Boobook (2/2)

STRIGIFORMES: Strigidae

Ninox novaeseelandiae  

We called in at Lotusbird Lodge near Lakefield National Park to have a bit of a sticky-beak. Who knows, we may want to stay here next time we come up the Cape.

This Southern Boobook likes the place. It has found itself a comfortable roosting spot under the eves of one of the cabins.
