Sunda Scops Owl (Otus lempiji)

Came across this wild owl sitting on the ground outside Universal Studios Singapore on Sentosa island early one morning, well before the park opened. It flew off to a nearby tree right after i took this photo. It might have flown into a glass window and got disoriented for a bit.

Is it rare to see them in the wild? I know most Scops owls are very hard to spot.

@Dr. Wolverine they are not particularly rare, but it is hard to see them in the wild as they are cryptic.

I saw one in Pasir Ris Park this March, it was very camouflaged and I could only see it's back.
