A Symbol of Victory, by Yasef Imroze

This photo was taken at Taronga Zoo, home to more than hundreds of different species of animals. I was quick to take the snap of this witty creature as it was observing a moment to itself at the bird show. The interesting fact about an owl is that they are the master of camouflages and back in the ancient times they were used as a great sign of victory as well as a symbol of death.
