Коротковуха сова полює вдень над луками болотами та полями у пошуках здобичі
The short-eared owl is a true marvel of the open landscapes. Unlike many of its nocturnal cousins, this owl is often seen during daylight hours, gliding low over grasslands, marshes, and fields in search of prey. Its flight is buoyant and moth-like, making it an impressive sight against wide horizons.
With striking yellow eyes set in a rounded facial disk and short feather tufts that are often only visible when it’s alert or agitated, the short-eared owl is well-adapted to its surroundings. Its camouflage plumage blends seamlessly with the earth tones of its preferred habitats, helping it avoid detection by predators and keep a low profile when roosting on the ground.
