Barn Owl in the Rice Paddy

We had great views of a Barn Owl being mobbed by some White-vented Mynas this evening. He flew right over me showing his love-heart face and perched in a  palm tree in the thicket which was of interest to the Black Bazas we saw on Wednesday. I walked into the thicket for better views but put him up which enabled my wife and daughter to get great views. We’ve had Barn Owls in our soi before, and a few years ago in trees at my school, so no big deal but not a bird we see every day.
