From Suffolk Owl Sanctuary

Happy Birthday to Boris our ashy-faced owl! Our beautiful lockdown baby Boris turns 5 years old today! He’s going to have an owltastic day!

SOS has so many unique owls! I wish I were able to visit!

The Ashy Faced Owl is a Caribbean barn owl. They were Top Tyto on Hispaniola until the 1950s, when the American Barn Owl was introduced to limit rodents on sugar plantations. Now they are in competition in a very limited environment.

The Dominican Republic Owl Conservation Project is looking to save these owls. Click this link to learn more!
