Die Visuil (Scotopelia peli) is 'n skaars standvoël wat in groot bome by mere en stadig vloeiende riviere slaap.
Die voël is 60 – 64 cm lank en 2 - 2.4 kg groot. Die uil se getalle neem af weens versteuring en wateronttrekking uit groot riviere. In Engels staan die voël bekend as die Pel's Fishing Owl.
