Information about the Buffy Fish Owl:

The Buffy Fish Owl is a one of four species of fish owl. While it’s a fairly large owl, it’s the smallest of the fish owls. Adults are about 15-19 inches (38-48 cm.) Bubo ketupu is native to the dense tropical forests of Southeast Asia. As the name implies, a large proportion of the Buffy Fish Owl’s diet consists of fish, as well as crustaceans, reptiles, frogs, toads and insects. Rats, mice and large beetles are also taken. They will sometimes take bats, and reportedly feed on carrion. Buffy Fish Owls fish from a perch an the water’s edge, or from a tree on a wooded bank, swooping down to snatch prey from the water’s surface. They will also walk in shallow streams to snatch crabs, frogs, fish and aquatic insects.

Artist’s notes:

The original drawing of a Buffy Fish Owl was completed on 3.2.2015. Some months ago I had put together a collage of the owls of North America. And I realized that I wanted to broaden that to a collage of owls of the world. So I started researching some of the more notable species of owl native to the other continents. I plan to do another few species within the next few weeks. The drawing is based on a photo by Eddy Lee and was used with his permission.
