Eurasian
Little Owl
- Athene
Noctua
Although the Little Owl is
native to the UK they can be found in most countries except
Australia.
The aptly named owl stands only
around 16 cm tall (female) but when puffed up can be nearly the same
around. They have yellow eyes, which means they are virtually
diurnal compared to most owls.
In the wild they feed on
beetles, worms and other insects but will catch mice and small birds
on occasions.
