The nests are on tops of broken trees high from the ground. The number of eggs in laying is 3-5. When there is not enough food, they don’t breed at all. The nestlings begin to fly at the age of 35 days and remain with parents the while autumn. Tawny owl eats little mammals and birds. It hunts at the daytime.
