Southern Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus nacurutu) at Scottish Owl Centre - 9t
In European collections, the Southern Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus nacurutu) is often mislabelled as Magellan's Owl (Bubo magellanicus) in captive collections; in point of fact there are only two true members of the latter species on public display within European collections, both of which are at Scottish Owl Centre. Fortunately, these individuals are displayed in an aviary immediately next to one containing Southern Horned Owl, allowing a comparison of the two species to be made.
