Description
This shot of "Cupid" was taken during a raptor workshop last fall. This beautiful little owl is used for educational purposes because he imprinted on a human at birth, and I totally fell in love with him.
The shape of this Barn Owl's face is adapted by nature for perfect hearing. Did you know that Barn Owls can hunt even on the darkest nights, using only their super sensitive hearing?
From Cornell Labs: "Ghostly pale and strictly nocturnal, Barn Owls are silent predators of the night world. Lanky, with a whitish face, chest, and belly, and buffy upperparts, this owl roosts in hidden, quiet places during the day. By night, they hunt on buoyant wingbeats in open fields and meadows. You can find them by listening for their eerie, raspy calls, quite unlike the hoots of other owls. Despite a worldwide distribution, Barn Owls are declining in parts of their range due to habitat loss."
