Boobook Barn Owl – Square Canvas Print

Description

The West Australian/Southern ‘Boobook’ Owl, a captivating nocturnal bird, that can be found throughout the diverse landscapes of Western Australia, from woodlands to shrub lands. Known for its distinctive golden-brown plumage and large, round eyes, this small owl is well-adapted to its environment. Primarily hunting at night, the ‘Boobook’ feeds on a diet of small mammals, insects, and occasionally birds, using its keen hearing and silent flight to catch prey. They are known for their distinctive “boo-book” call, which echoes through the night, making them a beloved feature of the Australian bush.

These owls prefer nesting in tree hollows, often utilizing the abandoned nests of other birds. Their presence is vital for maintaining the balance of the ecosystem, helping to control rodent populations. Witnessing this elusive bird in its natural habitat is truly a remarkable experience for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers alike.
