The tawny owl inhabits richly structured landscapes with good food supply. His way to hunt is the search flight and the Anwarten. Occasionally he becomes a predator and a fisherman. He has a wingspan of about 1 m. The Tawny Owl lives in monogamous permanent marriage and is up to date. He breeds preferably in tree caves. The Reviergesang of the males is a gruesome "huu-huhuhu-huu". This often happens in movies to create scary mood or tension.
