About this species

The Dusky Eagle-Owl is a large, grey owl of riparian forests and mango groves across northern and central India. Pairs occupy the same roost site for years — old fig trees near water are favourite spots. Corbett's Dhangadhi area and Kanha's riparian zones offer reliable sightings. See Dusky Eagle-Owls at India's forest rivers and groves. Riparian owl guide — roost sites and best birding locations.
