AUSTRALIA Maxicard - The Eastern Grass Owl

Thanks so much to Liz for the maxicard.


"The eastern grass owl (Tyto longimembris), or Australian grass owl is a species of owl in the family Tytonidae. T

The Eastern Grass Owl is sometimes known as the ‘Daddy Long-legs Owl’, reflecting the prominence of its elongated, slender legs which are an adaption to living in marshy sedgelands, farmland, canefields and other open habitats with tussocks of grass. Unlike other Australian owls, grass owls nest on the ground, among rank vegetation. They hunt for rodents, birds and insects by flying slowly over an area, and then plunging head-first, with the bird’s talons lunging onto the hapless prey at the last moment."

RUSSIA - Ural Owl

 Thanks to Juliana for the card.


"The Ural owl is smaller than the great grey owl, and much larger than the tawny owl, which it superficially resembles. Distinguishing features apart from the size are the pale, buffish grey-brown plumage, with copious dark brown streaking on the back of the head and underparts. It has a round head with plain buffish-grey facial discs, orange-yellow bill and small black eyes. The tail is long and wedge-shaped, with dark barring on the upper tail, and the wings are rounded. Flight is direct and purposeful, recalling that of the common buzzard. Sexes are similar, with no seasonal variation. Length can range 50 to 61 cm (20 to 24 in) and wingspan from 110 to 134 cm (43 to 53 in). Weight in males is 500–730 g (1.10–1.61 lb) and in females is 720–1,300 g (1.59–2.87 lb)."
