Canto e richiami di Little Owl

Canto e richiami sono spesso il modo più semplice per identificare Little Owl, soprattutto quando l'uccello è nascosto tra fitto fogliame. Ecco cosa ascoltare.

Canto

The male's primary song is a mournful, drawn-out 'goo-ek' or 'kiew' repeated at intervals, often with a slight upward inflection. It can also produce a more rapid, hooting 'hoo-hoo-hoo' series.

Richiami

A variety of calls including sharp 'kew-kew' alarm calls, a harsh 'chick-chick' when agitated, and a soft 'hoo' contact call. Juveniles emit a persistent, high-pitched 'psss-psss' begging call.

Quando vocalizzano

Most vocal during the breeding season (late winter to early summer), particularly at dusk and dawn. Can also be heard throughout the night and occasionally during the day.
