Rand's Boobook is a medium-sized owl found in the Philippines and parts of Indonesia. It is often treated as a subspecies of the Brown Hawk-Owl but can be recognized by local variations in its calls and appearance.
Where to spot
Inhabits forests and woodlands across the Philippines and some surrounding islands, adapting to both primary and secondary growth.
How to spot
Listen for its specific calls which vary across different boobook populations. Spotting it requires night-time searches with a spotlight in suitable wooded areas.
When to spot
Nocturnal. Best observed by listening for its calls during the night.
The complex taxonomy of Boobook owls means that many distinct populations are only now being recognized as full species through detailed study.
