Long-ears are medium size members of the owl family, widespread in Europe, Asia and North America. Though they are fairly common, their appearance can be erratic and their preference for roosting in dense cover can make them hard to locate and photograph. However, if you manage to see one, odds are that others will be nearby --in this case, there were six within a few meters of the one shown. Their diet tends toward smaller prey; typically voles, field mice and lizards which they hunt in open or lightly wooded meadows at the edge of the forest.
