Eurasian Eagle Owl Facts | Croatia & Slovenia Wildlife Guide
Recognized by their bright orange eyes and ear tufts, patterned brown feathers and light underparts, an eagle owl’s wingspan can stretch over 6 feet.
Eagle owls communicate with a variety of loud hoots, barks, beak snaps and whistles. Males have a deep resonant call that is always answered by those nearby. A female’s hoot is higher pitched, and they both use both the volume and distance of each other’s hoots to communicate their location and intent.
