"Sometimes it is very much necessary to have eyes in the back of your head!!!"

After the morning trail, in the afternoon we set out in search of some of the owls in the vicinity. After capturing some other birds, we came to this particular patch where this mysterious Short-Eared Owl is seen. This owl had perched itself on the solitary rock surrounded by dry grass on all sides. This particular owl is found in such type of dry grassland patches which provides a perfect camouflage as it easily gets merged in the habitat and is not visible to the naked eye. As we were not the only ones to capture this owl through the camera there were others too and this mysterious owl was observing everyone turn by turn. All of a sudden he gave a head on stare towards me, which gave me this beautiful and one of my favourite frames..✌🏻✨
