Spotted Owl

Northern Spotted Owl “California has it’s own list of endangered species of animals.” Like all states, California is home to many species of animals that are listed and protected under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. (http://www.allaboutwildlife.com/endangered-species/californias-endangered-animals/6037) The Northern Spotted Owl is one of the three subspecies, a division of a species, of spotted owls. A medium-sized, chocolate brown owl with dark eyes, the northern spotted owl is a nocturnal

Fish and Wildlife Service, under the pressure of environmentalists and scientific studies, listed the spotted owl as a “threatened” species, one step away from “endangered,” and entitled themselves to protecting the owl from hunting, trading, or federal action that could destroy its breeding or feeding grounds (Carey 13). This listing came on the heels of years of extensive studies of the spotted owl and its habitat conducted by environmental groups, the timber industry, and governmental researchers

species I have chosen to do it on the burrowing owl. I have chosen the owl because I really like owls and they are such majestic animals. I am going to be saying stuff on the Burrowing owl and why they are endangered and what is being done to rescue them. The Burrowing owl is a very endangered species. There are fewer than 1000 pairs in Canada. The average burrowing owl grows up to 23-28 centimeters tall and weighs up to 125 to 185 grams. A Burrowing owl is a small, sandy looking animal with bright

things would soon be happening all over the country. Mr. Dursley hummed as he picked out his most boring tie for work, and Mrs. Dursley gossiped away happily as she wrestled a screaming Dudley into his high chair. None of them noticed a large, tawny owl flutter past the window. At half past eight, Mr. Dursley picked up his briefcase, pecked Mrs. Dursley on the cheek, and tried to kiss Dudley good-bye but missed, because Dudley was now having a tantrum and throwing his cereal at the

Each chapter of the book begins with letters containing questions from an animal, amphibian, bug, arachnid, or other organism that, at times, must be put

The Hoggins were the kind very fond of adventures. They lived in a small town, called Leaz-vile, in their miniature nest. Now, Chumper Hoggins was the very curious type of owl. He lived with his mother, Anarople, and father, Gregriy. He had no siblings, but he really did wish he had a sister or brother. This owl family was very different, they could turn into humans when they hit land. They could also shoot fire from their talons. Aside from all that, there was a store not far from their little

of when you hear the word, “owl?” You might picture a barred owl with its elegant white feathers and small beak. But what about its distant relative? The Great Horned owl lives up to its name by its horned ears. This remarkable creature really stands out in the bird family due to the lack of predators and how small and aggressive it is. The Great Horned Owl is one of many Owls. Although there are many different species of owls, this one is unique. This particular owl is small, has a different diet

winnie cut through the peaceful air. A pegasus fell from above and landed on the island, too far for Poseidon to heal him. As Potatoession got closer, she noticed owl feathers all over the pegasus wing, which was now broken. “What the underworld are owl feathers doing on a pegasus wing?” She said to herself. “Maybe he ran into an owl... weird.” The pegasus whined in pain. Potatoession, not knowing that she should've just put him in the water, hauled the poor animal onto her boat. As

use of owls in his various paintings. Bosch was a very interesting lad and his paintings lean toward the bizarre end of a normalcy spectrum. Individuals likeminded to Bosch fascinate me. My mind does not function or view things the same way and I find it very intriguing. I cannot even imagine what types of discussions (much less guess the probable subjects) Bosch would have had with his fellow artists in his time. A secondary reason I chose to explore the meanings behind the use of owls is because

Discussion: After 24 (1992-2016) years 2,176 pellets were analysed by the students at the County College of Morris. Additionally, on average each pellet contained 2.6 prey equating to an average of 963 prey discovered in owl pellets per year (Table 1). After the analysis of the pellets it was discovered that the Tyto alba consumed a wide spectrum prey, primarily rodents. A total of six prey species were discovered. The Microtus commonly known as voles were the most abundant prey in the Tyto alba’s
