Season of the Owl
10,000 Birds
OCTOBER 17, 2019
October is a good month to see owls in Shanghai, where these birds are rare in most other months. Two species can be seen quite regularly – Northern Boobook and Oriental Scops Owl. Northern Boobooks are mostly found as individuals. They look a bit like cartoon birds, with ridiculously huge yellow eyes. In contrast, Oriental Scops Owls seem to often migrate in slightly larger groups of maybe 10 or so.
