How much do you know about owls? I’ve been fortunate to encounter many owls in my birding life, sometimes because I’m looking for them, sometimes happily by happenstance. What the Owl Knows: The New Science of the World’s Most Enigmatic Birds is a joyous, fascinating read. I don’t think so.

As a child, poring through the pages of the Encyclopedia of Animal Life (I was gifted this 25 years before I appeared in Audubon magazine myself) birds gripped my attention. But this book taught me about eagles, owls, storks and herons. Very soon, the other members of this unique family were on my radar.

Some local populations of birds and animals couldn’t adapt to the radical ecosystem-wide changes and just died out but a fair percentage did survive and continue to persist where green space lingers.

One might think that thanks to the Internet, all those ridiculous old wild animal myths handed down for generations would finally die a deserved death. Songbirds eat bugs, and raptors eat whole birds/animals. If you see an owl,” wrote Mikal Deese, “someone in your family is going to die. Feel free to vent!”.

In answer to the oft-asked question, “What is your favourite bird”, I can usually only narrow it down to three families; Rails, Cuckoos and Owls. A widely held belief amongst Bittern Believers is that the animal is hermaphroditic and reproduces autogametically. Bitterns are birds of fable.

Identifying White-eyes in Australia is easier than here in China, as the Silvereye is the only family member present in most parts of the country. This makes the marketing of a Queensland vacation home as Silver Gull Court a bit questionable. So she took over a bit later.

There are several books on feathers that also include some footprints of birds, maybe owl pellets. So here it is, the review of Tracks and Signs of the Animals and Birds of Britain and Europe by Lars-Henrik Olsen.

In the Far East they keep birds of prey which they use to capture other animals such as foxes and rabbits. Many birds around the world in the Robin family ( Turdidae ) are favorites due to their musical songs. The introduction of exotic animals has extirpated and continues to threaten hundreds of species.

We toured the Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre after dark, and we did it by foot in a group that was just my family and a guide. But on the second night we went on foot in a small group and saw a lot more, including flying frogs, a Common Banded Civet and best of all a brief view of a Buffy Fish Owl !

In spite of this New Zealand does have an iconic family of birds that has served as an emblem for the country for over a century, the kiwi. Searching for kiwi is unlike spotlighting that I’ve done while looking for nocturnal animals in the past. They would all be wrong, as New Zealand has no official National Bird.

A little further, there’s a family group of Savannah Elephants with two two-year olds. The others follow, some dozen animals in all. From 2020 to 2022, that figure was lower, about 500 animals per year, but is it because of better safety measures or fewer and consequently harder to locate quarries?

The Plain Sunbird is the plain vanilla version of the otherwise often very colorful family (ok, a very low-budget sort of joke). For good measure, some animals in the near vicinity were also named after him, such as Raffles’s Malkoha. Of course, there should be a photo of a vulture here, not of a Crested Serpent-eagle.

Because its extremely difficult to conclusively demonstrate what any nonhuman animal is thinking or feeling, this lack (failure?) of understanding on our part has morphed into an assumption that animals are simply little robots, acting purely on instinct and nothing else.
