small owl species endemic to the woods of North America, Mexico, and Canada, the eastern screech owl is made up of five different subspecies. They can often be found in urban areas, and have adapted well to living alongside humans. The eastern screech owl travels mostly under the cover of darkness, and hunts during the night-time hours. Hopefully this beautifully hand painted model doesn’t flutter around too much at night, and instead lets you get some sleep! Standing 4.75 inches tall and 5 inches long, both dimensions of this model are about the same size as the height of a soda can. Eastern screech owls can be many different colours, although they are most commonly a mixture of brown, tan, black, and white. The eastern screen owl is a heavily populated species, and has been classified as least concern by the IUCN. In fact, the eastern screech owl has benefited from human development, as farms and other man-made open grasslands allow them to hunt more effectively. Despite its name, the eastern screech owl doesn’t actually screech. Instead, it makes a calm, trembling hoot.
