Eagle Owl, Eurasia



The Eurasian eagle-owl is a species of eagle owl resident in much of Eurasia. It is sometimes called the European eagle-owl and is, in Europe where it is the only member of its genus besides the snowy owl, occasionally abbreviated to just eagle-owl. In India, it is often called the Indian great horned owl, though this may cause confusion with the similarly named American bird. It is one of the largest species of owl and females can grow to a total length of 75 centimetres.  Source
