What is the northern saw-to-win Owl?

Aegolius acadicus , better known as Northern Saw-Whet OWL, is a small native in North America. The northern sawmill, is known for its small size, is also well adapted to a number of habitats and is located in deserts, boreal and subtropical forests and even in some urban areas. The loss of habitats has led to a reduction in populations to some of the large extent of the owl, but remains one of the most populous owls throughout North America.

usually rises to a height of about eight inches (20.3 cm), the northern saw-only owl has a similarly small wing; Females are slightly larger than men. The color is dark brown with white spots, the better mixed into coniferous forests that prefers. Like many owls, the northern sawmill has a surprisingly large and bright yellow eyes.

Night hunter, owl feeds mainly on small rodents, insects and birds. Some coastal populations were observed dining in crustaceans and other seaside species. Owl uses a combination of a reduced light of the eveningEra and his masked color to help sneak on prey. Although predators of many smaller animals, beetles can also be prey, especially for large owls, such as large horned and silent owls. Unfortunately, for passionate bird observers, the night habits of the owls make observation rare, despite an extremely large -scale.

mating between saw-to-water Owls takes place in spring and early summer, although men may start to show mating throughout the winter. Owls usually form a bound pair, especially in areas where food supply is rare. Mother Owls incubate a full -time nest, but leave the nest shortly after the hatching of the chickens. Owl's father provides food during incubation and oraclet time, and continues to bring food to the baby's owl even after the mother left. Chickens will achieve sexual maturity in about one year.

The range of northern saws-but owls is quite stunning, especially for such a small animal. CTalks and permanent populations are found on the whole continent and reach well to Canada and even south of the United States to the Center of Mexico. Excellent camouflage and adaptable patterns of diet of owls, as well as its cooperative parental structure, allow it to prosper in many different environments. Population estimates for species indicate that somewhere between 300,000 and 600,000 individuals live in the wild, so that the northern sawmill-but owls one of the most common, if the least seen owl species.
