Owls @Carey Island

Barred-eagle (Juvenile?) Owl


Aww... so cute..


Looks like it was screaming out to us like, "leave me alone!!"


Barn Owl. Looks so grouchy.
Although we spotted a lot of barn owls, they are spooked easily so only managed to get one (blur) shot.


Wood Owl.


Giving us the stare!


Don't mess around with these razor sharp talons!

Carey Island Daytrip - Misc

The day started out rather wet and gloomy. Not sure which way the weather would go but the opportunities it presented was beautiful!

The gorgeous & magnificent Flame of the Forest against the dark & rainy morning sky.



Closer look at the flowers...


..getting an even closer look.


Fishing boats at Kg. Batu Laut.


Tide's out and so are the people for a stroll or collecting mussels/clams etc.


The monkey on the left was making eye gestures at the other monkey.


Raptor approaches the pole while the kingfisher bolts.


Pretty birdie on a coconut tree.


Fiddler crabs looking like they are greeting each other with a hand claw-shake.

This one looks all ruffled up! Not looking very happy.
