White Faced Scops stops in to visit The resident at the Owl Rescue Centre
Found this little fella perched on a shelf in our clinic this morning. He isn’t a patient, just a visitor checking in on a family member.
Our windows are made of shadenet with roll down canvas blinds and the one has an opening in where he flew in.
It happens almost weekly with all our different species.
White Faced Scops was winner of the first Owl of the Year, but will it be able to hold onto the crown again this year?
The look of someone trying to remember if they turned the stove off or not.
Who?
Squeeee…I mean quack quack :)
Hoot Hoot*
That’s a really cool call actually!
Tbh would make a good ringtone
It does sound like some kind of old analog phone sound!
Call is a quick series of “hu” notes followed by a longer “hwooow.” Separated from the very similar Northern White-faced Owl by voice and range.
I got all dressed up for this?
