In The Still Of The Night: Barred Owls

Their call is often translated as “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you all,” yet only these dark-eyed bards of the night know the true meaning. Large-headed Barred Owls are silent in flight as they pounce on their prey and are thought to mate for life.  Learn more at a presentation and then watch as two of these mesmerizing creatures, who have grown close during their stay at the Cape Wildlife Center, return to the night.
