About These Birds

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.

Barred Owl

The Barred Owl is a large owl of the family Strigidae found in mature forests, swamps, and mixed woodlands across much of North America. Weighing about 760g with a wingspan of 68.2cm, it is named for its distinctive horizontal barring on the breast. It is nocturnal and calls with a resonant 'who cooks for you' hooting, hunting small mammals, birds, and amphibians.
