Birds of Prey

Owls do not hoot at a particular given time. Since they are more active at night, we hear them more often then.

Secondly, not al owls 'Hoot'. Their calls vary.

They hoot for reasons that may be territorial - warning others to stay away, or it can be to contact a mate or young, or advertise availability for breeding.

The snowy owl, also known as the Arctic Owl, Great White Owl, or Harfang, lives mostly in northern regions close to the north pole, usually in cold snowy climates where its white feathers will allow it to blend in with its surroundings.

But the snowy owl is a migratory bird, as it often flies south to breed.

Generally, a Barn owl will sleep during the day, hunting from dawn until dusk, unless the Barn owl has had a hard time hunting or is looking after its young, when a barn owl will hunt during the day.

basically there are few characteristics of larks and owls and these are:

LARKS:

1. Larks are basically morning type of persons.

2. They get their best ideas in the morning time.

3. They have highly energy level during morning time.

OWLS:

1. Owls are basically evening/night type of persons.

2. They get their best ideas in the evening/night.

3. They have highly energy level during the evening/night.

Basically larks have highly energy level from 8:00 or 9:00 AM to 12:00 or 1:00 PM and owls have their highly energy level from 1:00 or 2:00 PM till the evening goes on.

The term "hawk" is not a scientific or taxonomic designation of a single bird, but is more of a common word used to refer to many different birds, perhaps as many as 200 different species. The true hawks alone comprise 48 species.

It would be best if you would rephrase the question to refer to a specific species or a type of "hawk" indigenous to a particular area.

In any case, one member of the broader "hawk" family that did face extinction 30 to 40 years ago is the peregrine falcon. The widespread use of the pesticide, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) in the 70's, caused this birds eggs to be thin-shelled and unable to support life. DDT was permanently banned from use.

Fortunately, a number of falcons had been captured for breeding, most notably at the University of Guelph in southern Ontario, and today this beautiful and majestic bird thrives, not only in Ontario but in many US states and also in Mexico.

We make mistakes, but we can correct them too if we act quickly enough.

Owls attack Squirrels when they are huntng or when a Squirrel might potentially harm an Owl's nest.

mostly prairie dogs and maybe because there dogs and like to dig things up and they are really fast at it.

The snowy owl is white with grayish-brown spots on its wings and back. Its eyes are amber and its beak is black.

A baby hawk is called an eyas.

The term "eyas" specifically refers to a young falcon, and even more specifically to one being raised and trained for falconry, but it might also generally apply to young hawks.

Hawks under a year are described as Passage, branch hoppers are called Branchers, and babies are Eyases... all falconry terms.

Barn Owls don't technically live IN barns;they roost.Barns are near a open field and it is a cool place (cool as in the temperature).

Most owls eat shrews. Foxes, weasels, not many eat them because they apparently have a bad taste to them

Vultures eat dead things, may stick their heads right inside the gut of a dead animal. Such habits give the risk of having of having the feather soiled with bacteria producing guck. To promote better health a nake head is better as it is more easily cleaned.

an owl landed on my porch last night and just sat there,,,,there was activity in and out of my front door ....but upon noticing the owl we quieted the noise level but continued to hang out around the owl....he just sat there watching us and doing nothing,,,,,,after 4-5 hours he simply flew away......if we would have approached him would he have been aggressive,,,?

Well, if they are live mice, put them in a large box so the owl cants fly out, eh or she will catch them. If they are frozen, thaw them and heat them some put them in the same box and lay them over on the other side form the owl, if they are heated it will think they are alive and with try to "catch" them and eat it.

Because the females like to kill more animals and males spend most of there time

at the nest

Owls communicate with hooting, hissing, calling, fluffing feathers, posture, and bill snapping.

By staying high in the trees and not to stay in the open too long. Also they eat really fast when they are in the open field. Also by breeding and traveling in groups. I must say not all birds live in flocks.

Kestrals are birds of prey but bigger birds can attack such as great-horned owls and red-tailed hawks. Other predators that have been known to attack raptors or their eggs are coyotes, bobcats, skunks, raccoons, crows, and ravens.

not sure, but "they" say if an owl lands on your house, someone in your family will soon die.
