Alan Van Norman

This is the most original name they could come up with this guy…

Scientific name isn’t any better. Strix nigrolineata just means owl with black lines.

Zebra Owl, Newsprint Owl, Bandit Owl, Masked Owl

What name would you have given this owl?

      I could see this being a Jeff.

      Not sure the gender of this one.

      I’m glad you like it. I try to get a good mix of owls in here. I’m almost done the primarily US based owls, but even so I try to get ones from all over the world.

      Antarctica is the only place without owls. Everywhere else, from the middle of nowhere to the biggest cities have owls tucked away somewhere!
