African Wood Owls

From Baytree Owl and Raptor Centre

These little guys are Woodfords Owls and we've not had this species here (certainly since I've been here anyway). There are actually 4 of them that all live together and have just had a quick beak trim and check over before they head in to the quarantine aviaries for a few weeks.

They are cute little species that always look permanently surprised with their massive eyes.

AKA: African wood owl (Strix woodfordii)

We haven't talked about these guys here much before, so these will be new to many of you.
