The Eagle Owl is one of the largest species of owls, known for its impressive wingspan that can reach up to 6 feet. These birds are characterized by their striking orange eyes and prominent ear tufts. They primarily inhabit forests, mountains, and rocky areas across Europe, Asia, and parts of North Africa. Eagle Owls are nocturnal hunters, preying on small mammals, birds, and even reptiles. They have excellent night vision and can hear low-frequency sounds, making them effective predators. Their strong talons and powerful beaks help them catch and consume their prey efficiently.
