Take a look at the cute fluffy baby Barred Eagle-Owl seen in Singapore's Central Catchment Nature Reserve.

The barred eagle-owl, also called the Malay eagle-owl, is one of the largest owls found in Singapore. It is a fairly large owl but relatively small eagle-owl, this species ranges from 40 to 48 cm in length. What's most distinctive about this species is the darker streaks on the chest (thus the name "barred"), and the large ear tufts on either side of its face.
