Exactly three years ago, I photographed a pair of Striped Owls, with my family, right in the middle of Panama City at the very popular Parque Omar (here the photos). Today, my friend Osvaldo Quintero showed me this Striped Owl almost in the same site, over the tennis court:

The Striped Owl is rarely seen in Panama City, where there is little available habitat. This individual was discovered due to the droppings that appeared each morning on the court since some days ago. A second individual had just left the site, according to the tennis players. This owl is beautifully patterned in warm brown, white and black... and have the conspicuous ear-tufts associated with owls by the non-birders.

After some shots, I left the site with the owl exactly in the same site. If you want to see it just check the branches above the tennis courts over the droppings. Happy birding!
