The boobook owl is a nocturnal hunter. Its diet comprises small mammals, birds and invertebrates. Like all owls, it is superbly adapted for night-time hunting. Its soft feathers effectively eliminate the noise of its flapping wings, allowing it to swoop upon unsuspecting prey. The boobook nests in the hollows of trees, where it lays two to three white eggs. It should always be remembered that dead trees are as important as live ones, as they are the home for a wide range of mammals and birds. Once cleared, it may take hundreds of years for a tree to form such hollows.

I so love owls! I see a great horn one once in a blue moon hunt on my propert. Out here, theynest in the huge saquaro cactus. I see the funny little burrowing owls, a few that live near the back of my property, a few feet on the other side of the fence so my dogs can't get them. In the summer I see out and watch them hunt mice and bugs. There are also very small elf/or dwarf, If forget which it is owls that fly about. I thought them bats at first glance until I got a good look. This is a cutie! I hadn't seen this kind before.Thanks for sharing such a beautiful bird! Nice step by step!Kevin Lambeth 28 Mar 2006
