The Asian Barred Owlet is a small, widely distributed owl found across a vast range of Asia. It is distinctive for its barred plumage and diurnal habits.
Where to spot
Widespread across Asia, from the Himalayas to Southeast Asia, inhabiting open woodlands, forest edges, and cultivated areas.
How to spot
Listen for its characteristic 'who-who-who-who' call, often given in a quick series. Look for it perched openly on branches or utility wires, often being mobbed.
When to spot
Primarily diurnal, active during the day. Most vocal at dawn and dusk, but often seen and heard throughout the day.

This owlet often perches conspicuously during the day, relying on its excellent camouflage and often being mobbed by smaller birds, which can inadvertently help in its detection by observers.
