The Long-eared Owl is 31-37cm in length with an 86-98cm wingspan. It has orange eyes; its long ear-tufts are not usually visible in flight, but are otherwise fairly obvious. It is brownish above and pale below. It is very long winged, like the similar Short-eared Owl, and glides slowly on stiff wings when hunting. This nocturnal species is perhaps most easily seen perched in a tree in its daytime roost. (from Wikipedia)
