About These Birds

Arabian Scops-owl

The Arabian Scops-owl is a small nocturnal owl from the Arabian Peninsula, weighing about 66.5 grams with a wingspan near 25 cm. It inhabits rocky wadis, date palm groves, and dry woodland, where it hunts insects and small vertebrates at night. Its cryptic streaked plumage makes it nearly invisible when roosting against tree bark or rocky surfaces during the day.

African Scops-owl

The African Scops-owl is a small, cryptically patterned owl with a wingspan of about 26 cm and a weight near 88 g. It roosts by day pressed against tree bark, blending in perfectly, and calls at night with a repetitive, monotone whistle across African savannas and woodlands.
