Bare-legged Owl
The Bare-legged Owl is a small owl of the family Strigidae endemic to Cuba, inhabiting forests and woodland across the island. Weighing about 95.5g with a wingspan of 28.8cm, it is characterized by its unfeathered tarsi, which distinguish it from other Cuban owls. It is nocturnal, hunting insects, lizards, and small vertebrates in forested habitats.
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.
