https://www.vogelwarte.ch/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/3090_1.jpg16001200The Eurasian Eagle-owl is an imposing sight. During the day it likes to roost in undisturbed, well covered sites in cliffs from where it can survey its territory. It occurs above the treeline as well as in the lowlands and is quite undemanding as long as the area is rich in prey. The Eurasian Eagle-owl still suffers due to collisions with overhead wires and traffic.
