Owls in Fall

If you'd like to go out and do some owl watching, this is a good time to do it. By fall, all the owlets have 'flown the coop' and the parents are now free to roam and explore distant, and hopefully, more plentiful, hunting grounds. This is also the time when the owls are the most vocal, making it easier to spot them.

It is not known why owls are more vocal at this time of the year, but some speculate it is simply because they now have more energy after months of caring for their young. Others think that they are broadcasting, or 'networking', with other owls for territory. Perhaps both theories are correct. In any event, the mild fall weather with warm colored leaves can make this Owling (owl watching) time a most pleasant experience. But, remember to not get too close.

For tips on Owling and to learn to differentiate owls' calls, check out this prior blog post.

In the meanwhile, cuddle up with these warm owls in fall themed items:
