Owl is nowhere to be seen these days. In my childhood, they were often seen in the holes of banyan trees and on the branches of other giant trees. They looked scary with their big eyes but they have never tried to intimidate us even once. Some people used to say that owls are messengers of spiritual realms. They would bring good luck, especially monetary gain when we encounter them unexpectedly. There are many negative opinions about these nocturnal creatures. I was doubting why didn't they build nests like other birds instead of being in tree holes.
Perhaps due to changing eco-balance, now, owls are hardly seen. Their voice is distinct from other birds. In our childhood, along with my friends, while being roamed in nearby thickets, many sounds were heard in different frequencies. Surprisingly no bird made its presence but once we left the place, they would run away with fluttering their wings. Apart from all, owls are very clever like humans. They preserve extra food in their holes. I keep looking for owls wherever huge trees appear but my anticipation fails every time.
