Strix varia
Brown owl with vertical striped pattern on belly feathers
Pine forest
This was a wounded owl named cedar who was taken in by the Saint Francis wildlife hospital in Tallahassee. They take her around to explain how you shouldn't throw food out your car window because it attracts mice to the road and the owls follow the mice and get injured.
