Guess Who was spotted in Peru? Cutest L'il Owl!

The Xenoglaux is a rare owl with long whispy feathers around its cute yet spooky reddish-orange eyes.
Ahhh, look at those mezmerizing reddish-orange eyes!
This rare species is threatened by the rapid destruction of its forest habitat so give a hoot don't pollute and think first before succumbing to development.

Discovered in 1976 this species of owl is seldom seen. Recently the bird was spotted in a private conservation area in Peru's northern jungle (a remote region).
