It's so funny when every other baby animals are so cute then they just become sharper as they grow. Owls... they're gorgeous when they're adults, owlets just look like deformed puppets or dust bunnies lol.
Underrated comment 😂
I think owlets are adorable when they're in they get their fluff.
Trang Trần, maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholders. 🦉
I like that in the Netherlands we just call this owl the "oohoo" after the sound they make XD
Best name.
Same here in germany 😂
In Norway we call it hubro
When you think about it owl aint to far off the sound they make either. Ooowwllll
That’s amazing because owls here in the US speak the same language!
Did anyone else come here after seeing the video of this owl that just moved into a random person's window planterbox and nested there? The chicks watch TV!!

Annelyne Toering of course, didn’t we all? 🦉🦉
@@Teeniebfable Exactly
Sure did! LOL I love owls. Sadly there are not enough near us anymore. :-(
Nee ik kwam hier voor jou
I did
My favorite owls. Another example of "cute" meets "deadly". Nature really loves to make gorgeous animals and then make them utterly deadly. Case and point? This darling, looks like a plushie, but has claws that can snap a rabbit's neck. I was born in Moscow, and well we might have had a breeding pair in the wooded area nearby, every night they would start hooting. I was maybe 4 at the time, and I remember that sound, they kept me awake with that hooting. It seemed so creepy and disturbing back then.
I love those gorgeous orange eyes. Owls are one of my favorite animals and definitely my favorite bird so I'm glad to learn more!
That's awesome! I'm so glad you learned something! Owls are amazing predators. Their silent wings are incredible to me.
They are one of the coolest birds. I live near a forest where quite a few of these live. Everytime I'm in the forest when it's dark outside, I like to just shout "hoot hoot" into the woods and they will useally reply and hoot back. It's so cool because it feels almost like I'm talking with them.
I've definitely done this, too! 😸
Magnificent bird. One is loose in Central Park, NY presently. Vandals opened his enclosure at the Central Park zoo. His name is Flaco. Hope he is recaptured safely.
Oh no! We hope so, too!
As of now, he is hunting for himself and doing fine living in Central Park. They are watching him, but not trying to recapture. I'm happy he gets to live a "wild" life in the city!
This owl is absolutely cute! I understand that this owl has extremely long distance vision and even hunt during the daylight, but I guess that's why it has such a large cute eyes :D
They are pretty freaking adorable. Deadly, but adorable.
@@AnimalFactFiles Have you seen Yoll, the eagle owl on TH-cam?
Those eyes are so fiery that they're seen even in the dark. Wow.
I held a Eurasian eagle owl at a falconry display in York Gardens some years ago her name was Henriette and she was beautiful, large and quite heavy. When I handed her back to the falconry fellow she started acting up and flapping her wings a she was so powerful doing so I thought she was going to blow us both over. The Eurasian eagle owl has to be one of my favourite birds of prey after spending some time with one.
I love that this owl sounds kinda like a guy pretending to be an owl.
WHO?
Bokuto ?
The Old World's counterpart of the Great Horned Owl. Large, powerful, aggressive owls that aren't picky about their prey.
A video on the Barred Owl and/or Screech Owls would be interesting.
Great suggestions! Thank you!
All the deadly things, have to be the cutest things ever.
COME ON NATURE!!
Nature doesn't play games.
THE ABSOLUTE UNIT
3:39 "freaking adorable" indeed!
One of the most beautiful animals ever! I love owls.
Thanks for the video.
They are beautiful! What about them do you find the most appealing?
@@AnimalFactFiles I don't know. I love that owls tend to be almost the perfect predator. They can fly super slow without dropping. They fly almost silently. They have excellent senses. And they are BEAUTIFUL! I think that's my favorite part; they are BEAUTIFUL, especially when they fly.
Eurasian Eagle Owls (sub species) the fishing owl are really cool too. Very rare to see.
Magnificent birds. A zoo in Australia claims that some of their Eagle Owls have 7 ft wingspans.
The much smaller Great Horned owl of North America has tremendous talon strength that is said to rival that of the much larger Golden eagle. The talon strength of the Eurasian Eagle owl must be phenomenal.
Wow gorgeous beautiful Owl's Nocturnal is A GODDESS Forever.
Owls in general are cool
3:15 Is it Yoll himself?
All I see is the villainous Clockwerk from Sly Cooper. Especially with that eyebrow.
*"You cannot escape me, Cooper Raccoon."*
Bubo Bubo...sounds very scientific.
They are beautiful animals, love their eyes and the depiction of their knowledge and wisdom.
Ventura the ace: I read that Eagle Owls are capable of killing Golden eagles and have taken young eagles as prey. I cannot imagine an owl seeing an adult Golden Eagle as a food source. Since one hunts at night and the other by day they don’t interact much. They are both apex predators.
I also read about a Golden Eagle somewhere in North America that killed a Great Horned owl but was so brutalized by the encounter that it barely survived the fight.
And lastly, a Bald eagle attacked a Great Horned owl in the daylight when the owl was caught off guard. This occurred at a golf course and the owl was killed. A man had photos of the attack that may still be online if you search for them.,
Oh yes. One last thing. Can’t Be sure if this is true or not but it has been said that some hunters in an Asian country (Mongolia?) use Eagle Owls to hunt for Golden eagles. Like I said, not sure if that is true or a fabrication.
Just caught one two days ago and released yesterday...very beautiful creature...
Thanks for the information again, AFF!
You are most welcome, Jaden!
I love these creatures. Here in Portugal their translated name is something like "royal bubo".
That's a fitting name for such majestic birds!
These are huge birds, sheesh.
Would love to see one in real life!
Beautiful
This is my favorite animal, great horned owls are all over where I live, but I love Eurasian eagle owls.
They're so majestic!
You should visit Yoll's channel)))
The owl with a dumb sounding scientific name-
Scientific names, amiright?
Bubo bubo is so fun to say though!
Fun fact you can tell an owl when they hunt at night by their eye colour if its bright like these or dark they hunt at day 😊
Met a guy in Asia who's got two giant ones for Pets. Also had an Albino python, and two Sevalles roaming about.
Met one a long time ago, she didn't hoot, but 'mi mi mi' (yes I watched Yoll too lol) . also can I share your informative video to another website? People are curious about owls in there too ;)
That would be cool to hear! And yes! Please feel free to share, just link back to here so people know where it came from. 😊 Thanks for watching!
@@AnimalFactFiles turns out the website won't allow the vid to be shared because of 'map problem', that's fine I guess.
Still, the owls in the vid are very cute uwu
Nice!
i subscribed because i hope to see them grew
Thanks so much!
supercool overview ....
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

(The first few frames of this episode may look "weird" because it has been edited to remove the intro. Sorry for any confusion!)
Hey it's Clockwerk before he became robotic and tried to get after Sly's entire family.
I wonder if they are as big as the great horned owl, which I have been photographing a mom and two owllets
Eurasian eagle owls are quite a bit larger than great horned owls (though the later are still impressive!). Sounds like some great photography opportunities! 😊
Owls are the only bird species in the world to have forward facing eyes.
Owls are only birds to have head for their eyes. Others have eyes in their head.
🦉
That birds got a constant angry bird face
Evening grosbeaks are the same, we've done a video on them, too: th-cam.com/video/WyzyPX5Ll38/w-d-xo.html
LITTLE BOOTS
Do you think they should be in a zoo? The one loose from Central Park zoo seems happier, he is hunting and eating on his own but worried about him eating rodenticide
When Flaco escaped , I talked to a person at a owl center . You are right about the rodenticide from the poisoned rats in NYC . The effects build up and cause weakness so he would be unable to hunt or avoid hazards . I can only hope he would be noticed and rescued in time for successful treatment.
I'm going to pick one up today 😁
Do Golden Eagles hunt adult Eagle Owls?
It's probably possible, but I doubt eagle owls are a major food source for any golden eagles.
BUBO BUBO!
Probz one of the easiest scientific names to remember. 😆
Their feet are like a cute 6 yo kid holding a gun.
01:48
I can't believe the guy didn't talk about the bird's epic Ben Shapiro eyebrows.
What are the names of the 16 subspecies of eurasian eagle owls?.....🦉🦅
Can someone mail me one of the see owls please??? It would be the generous and the Christian thing to do.
So these owls are going instinct? My chocolate said so
Extinct, not instinct
