owl [IW]

owl, long-eared owl, screech owl, or nocturnal bird. Lit. "worm owl" (srin bu'i bya) or "ghost bird" (srin po'i bya). The exact species seems somewhat unclear, and more research is needed, but it is possibly Asia otus (linneaus), the northern (or Asian) long-eared owl. [Erick Tsiknopoulos]
