[edit]DescriptionShort eared owl kohl odfw (6355904513).jpg |
Photo by Keith Kohl, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Short-eared Owl (Asio flammeus) The Short-eared Owl is one of our most conspicuous owls owing to its use of open country and crepuscular habits. Often seen hunting low over the ground across marshes, fields, and other open areas on its buoyant, long wings, flying slowly and irregularly like a giant moth. This owl also differs from most other owls as it seldom vocalizes and is more often seen than heard. It was named for its inconspicuous "ear" tufts arising from the center of the forehead, though field observers rarely see these tufts. Distinguishing characteristics include a pale buff facial disk and a broad tawny patch at the base of the primaries that causes a conspicuous flash in flight above. Black wrist marks are visible below, as are course dark brown streaks on the chest with the rest of the underparts finely streaked dark brown on a buff background. It is locally common to rare in open country through the state. Considerable variation in its distribution from year to year is likely due to fluctuations in it's prey base. East of the Cascades it is locally common in the breeding season, particularly in the large wetland complexes. |
