Description
This brown morph Eastern Screech Owl (Otus asio) found the perfect tree cavity for its daytime roost at AmeriCana, The Birding Center RV Resort, in Palmview, Texas.
This robin-sized nightbird is common over much of the east, including in city parks and shady suburbs, where many human residents are unaware they have an owl for a neighbor. The owl spends the day roosting in holes or in dense cover, becoming active at dusk. Despite the name, screech-owls do not screech; the voice of this species features whinnies and soft trills.
