Thank you Ann. Ismael, here is some information about this species: The Long-eared Owl is a medium sized owl, 31–40 cm (12–16 in) in length with an 86–100 cm (34–39 in) wingspan and a body mass of 178–435 g (6.3–15.3 oz)

Thank you Luc.

Thank you cormoros75.

Thank you Atul and Gerardo.

Quite common here. Most of the birds from the local population migrate, but, as you can see, not all of them.

If you really want to see this species, you'll have to visit Bucharest in winter...

It is related with the Grosbeaks - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawfinch

I also like them very much, Darwin26. Unfortunately it is hard to take pictures with this secretive species.

Thank you Susan and Angela.
