Summary[edit]
.jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | The bugger was adamant in not opening his eyes, or probably the autofocus beam was too bright for him anyway. We did not want to stress the animal any further, a rather noisy group set upon that are and at rate it was difficult to change camera settings in pitch black, so we decided to move on. It hunts by flying low and slowly over an area of open ground, hovering over spots that conceal potential prey. They may also use fence posts or other lookouts to ambush prey. The Barn Owl feeds primarily on small vertebrates, particularly rodents. Studies have shown that an individual Barn Owl may eat one or more rodents per night; a nesting pair and their young can eat more than 1,000 rodents per year. (Al Ain, UAE, Aug. 2008) |
