The large, orange-faced spotted wood-owl (Strix seloputo) can be found in several distinct areas throughout Southeast Asia. A true owl, the spotted wood-owl lives in open forests or woodland habitats and can usually be found near water. It has striped coloration that helps it hide in shaded canopies.

This earless bird feeds primarily on small rodents, which it hunts from a perch.
