Identification of Montana's Owls

boreal owl by Denver W. Holt and Dale M. Becker
illustrated by Joe Thornbrugh The following guide is to help you identify Montana owls.. Owls are divided into two groups or subfamilies: Tytoninae (barn and bay owls) and Striginae (all other owls). In North America, the two groups are represented by breeding species; 15 species occur in Montana. Owls are basically nocturnal or crepuscular (active in the last morning or early evening). However, during winter, some species may be observed almost any time and in a variety of habitats because they are in search of food. Because most owls are active in times of low light or complete darkness, they have evolved a low-frequency vocal repertoire as a means of communication. Familiarity with these primary songs can greatly facilitate owl identification.

All About Owls
Owl Quiz
Owl Printout
Owls are nocturnal hunting birds with eyes that face forwards. They are closely related to hawks. Owls sleep during the day and emerge at night to hunt small prey.
There are about 162 different species of owls alive today, inhabiting a huge variety of ecological niches, from rainforests to tundra.
Anatomy
Owls have a large head and large eyes that face forwards (unlike other birds, whose eyes are on the sides of their head). This eye placement gives them binocular vision and very precise depth perception. Also, there are circles of radiating feathers surrounding each eye, giving them a wide-eyed, alert look.
Some owls have feathered ear tufts; these are not ears, but are part of the owl's camouflage.
Flight
Many owls have thick feathers that absorb the sounds that their wings make in flight. Prey and Hunting Owls are carnivores that hunt during the night (they are nocturnal). They use their keen sense of sight to find prey in the dark (owls see mostly in black and white). They have an acute sense of hearing which also helps in finding meals. Owls are stealth hunters, they can easily sneak up on their prey since their fluffy feathers give them almost silent flight. Owls have two methods of hunting
  • Perch and pounce - the owl waits on a low tree branch until it spots prey. It then swoops down onto the prey. This method is used often by owls that live in relatively dense forested areas.

Owls
Great Horned Owl California Spotted Owl Western Screech Owl Short-eared Owl ... Owl Traits California Spotted Owl Owls have been the subject of much misunderstanding, superstition, and fancy. Over the centuries people have used owls to represent everything from evil, dark side to knowledge and wisdom. The wise, old owl is the most popular connotation today. People are starting to wise up too and realize the benefits of owls. Owls are efficient rodent predators and thus can be economically beneficial in many places. A single barn owl can eat over a thousand mice in a year. Owls have several features which make them such excellent hunters. Most owls are nocturnal (distinctively active at night) and thus have adapted to the night. Owls have incredible hearing involving asymmetrical ear chambers. Owls have superb night vision and use silence as a weapon. Owls have a few curious habits too. They regurgitate pellets containing undigested parts of their prey. Owls do not build their own nests. Instead they use old hawk nests, natural cavities, buildings or human constructed boxes. Their flight is moth-like or buoyant because their wings are stiff in flight coming both above and below their body. In many places owl habitat is fading and owls are disappearing. These creatures of the night are mysterious and fascinating. "To paraphrase something naturalist Henry Beston once said, owls hear different voices, voices we cannot even begin to perceive, and act and interact in ways that we diurnal creatures will never witness, nor even understand fully. We can study them, we can learn to spot them, but, at least to us owls will always remain aloof, apart, mysterious." (Sutton,13)

Introduction
The following pages describe the nine owls of North Dakota and are designed to help you locate and identify these fascinating birds of prey. Four of the nine owls are fairly common nesting species, while the others either nest occasionally or are found during particular seasons. Three of our owls depend primarily on native grasslands and have shown population declines presumably in response to the loss of required food and habitat. Owls have extraordinary sight and hearing capability. Their eyes are large and used to hunt during the night. Ears of the owl are even more remarkable. They are openings in the side of the head surrounded by deep, soft feathers, which the owl can shape to direct sound into the ear. The bird's facial disc, generally outlined by some change in feather pattern or color on the face, is also believed to help direct sound into the ear canal. Owl feathers are very soft in comparison to other birds and aid the owl in approaching prey quietly. They can strike their victims in the air, on the ground or even in trees by using long, sharp talons.

Owls
Updated 8/23/95 Owls are birds of prey that actively feed and hunt throughout the night and during twilight hours. Often mysterious to man, owls figure largely in myths, folklore and superstition. Their large eyes, nocturnal nature and eerie calls have led to fear and loathing by many. Owls play an important role in the balance of forest and open land environments. Much like hawks, owls prey on rodent, reptile and small game populations at night. Owls feed on a variety of animal species from insects, small mammals and reptiles, to the occasional fish. Typically solitary feeders, owls may occasionally gather in winter roosts or at an abundant food source Habitat Owls are found across all of North Carolina, with the exception of some marine habitats. Owls are largely forest birds with most requiring hollow trees or dark, dense vegetation to seek refuge during the day. Since much of their diet is typically rats and mice, prime feeding habitat occurs along fields and transitions where rodents and insects abound. Owl Adaptations
  • Large Retinas - Vision is 50-100 times better than humans in poor light.
