TAWNY OWL FACTS...
1. Tawny owls are nocturnal, so you won’t see them during the day. 2. You can hear the male and female owls calling to each other - the females ‘Toowit’ and the males reply ‘Toowoo’.
3. The males and females tend to stay together for life.
4. Its left ear is higher than its right ear and points downwards so it can hear noises from both below and above at the same time.
5. The male is 3/4 the weight of the female.
