A Eurasian Eagle Owl.

I think you are right. And the Commons caption is good enough for confirming identification. This picture has been on my interesting pictures list for quite a while, but it looks like it has been on Commons for more than a year. Perhaps there was a German version shadowing it when I first found it. -- Solipsist 00:16, 17 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
