As the camera pans across the room, it eventually focuses on the upper part of a curtain frame, where an owl is seen perched calmly. The bird appears completely unfazed by the celebration, simply observing its surroundings and occasionally moving its head in a manner reminiscent of a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera.
Interestingly, the owl was not the only animal present in the house. The video also shows a child holding a turtle, while in the middle of the living room, a cat dressed in a grey Raya outfit can be seen, adding to the unusual yet entertaining scene.
In another clip, one of the family members attempts to encourage the owl to leave by using a mop stick. However, rather than flying away in distress, the owl simply moves to another spot without causing any commotion and resumes perching as if it belonged there.

The comment section of the video is filled with amused netizens who found the presence of the owl both bizarre and hilarious. Many joked about how the bird seemed to be joining the Hari Raya celebration, blending in effortlessly with the family gathering. Others couldn't stop laughing at how the family members continued enjoying their Raya feast without paying much attention to their unexpected guest.
This lighthearted moment has warmed the hearts of many, showing that sometimes, even nature finds a way to partake in festive celebrations. The video serves as a reminder of the joy and unexpected surprises that can come with family gatherings, making Hari Raya even more memorable.
