Everett's Scops-Owl

Otus everetti (Tweeddale, A 1879)

Everett's scops owl is an owl, endemic to the Philippines, belonging to the family of the typical owls Strigidae. Everett's scops owls feed at night on insects. They live alone or in monogamous pairs. They breed throughout the year, laying clutches of 1-2 eggs. They nest in tree hollow in forests of the Philippine lowlands. They are found on Bohol, Samar, Biliran, Leyte, Mindanao and Basilan. They were formerly classified as a subspecies of the Philippine scops owl. Source: Wikipedia
