Barred Owl

From USFWS National Wildlife Refuge System:




The Barred owl’s hooting call, “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you-all?” is a classic sound of old forests and treed swamps. Barred owls on Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge, NC, have a wide range of food: mice, opossum, rabbits, squirrels, snakes, frogs, salamanders, beetles, grasshoppers, slugs, fish and a variety of birds. Originally a bird of the East, the barred owl has spread throughout the Pacific Northwest and into California You can visit Alligator River Refuge’s visitor center on Roanoke Island year-round Monday-Saturday, 9 am-4 pm; Sunday, noon-4 pm.
