Who's Watching?

From Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Cue 🎶 Why does it always feel like somebody's watching meee 🎶

Chances are you've been spotted by more owls than you've been able to spot.***

These two eerie owls definitely have their moonlike eyes set on something, probably prey. For a Tropical Screech-Owl, prey could mean just about anything, including small frogs, small snakes, birds, opossums, bats, and small rodents. Invertebrates found in their diet include earthworms, scorpions, spiders, harvestmen, and a wide variety of insects.

***Caveat: this hasn't been studied, and we don't know you, maybe you're great at spotting owls

Tropical Screeches are found in South America and southern Central America. They are known for having a herringbone style pattern on their underbits.
