Hi Bert,

I am confident that the owl is a Southern Boobook but it is very unusually
coloured.  Were both birds similarly coloured?  The white 'eyebrows' are a
Boobook character.  Barking Owls tend to appear to be staring with large
yellow eyes.  They also have yellow feet.  The colour of the eyes and feet
are not clear in your photos but do not appear to be yellow.  The general
shape is also boobook.

Regards

Greg
