About These Birds
Uhu
Der Uhu gehört zu den größten Eulenarten der Welt; Weibchen erreichen mitunter eine Flügelspannweite von fast zwei Metern. Sein tiefer, dröhnender Ruf ist in ruhigen Nächten bis zu vier Kilometer weit zu hören. Als Spitzenprädator steht der Uhu an der Spitze der Nahrungskette unter den Vögeln und erbeutet auch andere Greifvögel wie Bussarde und kleinere Eulen.
Anjouan Scops-owl
The Anjouan Scops-owl is an endangered small owl with a 32.6 cm wingspan, weighing 119 grams, endemic to Anjouan Island in the Comoros. It inhabits remaining forest fragments on the island, hunting insects and small vertebrates at night. Forest loss severely threatens its tiny population.
