Short-Eared Owl Perched by Coastal Fishing Nets
This wild bird scene depicts a short-eared owl standing guard atop a wooden pier post along a tranquil bay. Nearby sit coiled fishing nets and a traditional woven fish basket, combining coastal maritime heritage with natural avian wildlife.
Facts About Short-Eared Owls and Coastal Ecosystems
Short-eared owls get their name from tiny tufts of feathers on top of their heads that look like ears but are actually used for body language communication. Unlike most owls that nest high in tree branches, short-eared owls build their nests directly on the ground among tall grasses and coastal reed beds.
