This Eastern Screech Owl Named Echo was taken at Mountsberg Raptor Centre. Echo hatched in 2002. If a Screech Owl feels threatened and is unable to retreat back into its nest cavity, it will pull in all of its feathers, stand up tall, close its eyes and put up its ear tuffs so that they look like a branch on the tree. They like to eat most kinds of small animals, including birds and mammals as well as surprisingly large numbers of invertebrates, including earthworms, insects, crayfish, tadpoles, frogs, and lizards.
