About These Birds
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.
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.
