@mohammadsaif16 @PMCPune I understand it can get annoying but these are the juvenile barn owls asking for food from the parents. They will disperse in a few weeks. Having Barn Owls in the society will help in rodent control. If residents can tolerate it for some more time, it will help them & Us.

@mohammadsaif16 @PMCPune I understand that residents are disturbed by the Barn owls constant calls. These are likely to be made by juvenile Barn Owls asking to be fed by the parents. After a few weeks the juveniles will disperse. Also Barn owls in your society will keep check on rodents so they help

Elephants rip and consume tree bark to get necessary nutrients. A patrolling elephant tries to make the most of this fact.

Ants are the pioneers of Airbnb. Rufous Woodpecker lives in Crymatogaster ant nest. The woodpecker gets bed and ant-larvae breakfast while the ants get woodpecker protection from predatory wasps. Win Win.
