This beautiful nocturnal Long-Eared Owl soft toy strikes a majestic pose, mimicking its real-life counterpart! With mottled plumage, large head feathers (otherwise known as ‘ear tufts’!) and striking golden eyes, this plush owl is an impressive addition to any soft farm toy collection.
The Long Eared Owl certainly looks wise and majestic, with an imposing stare and mysterious nature. They live in dense woodlands and are known to recycle other bird’s old nests, like crows, ravens and magpies. Although they don’t like to make their own nests, they aren’t lazy. Like all owls, they’re nocturnal so are active only at night. Hunting small mammals, they eat voles and mice and sometime small birds in the Winter. They have incredible hearing and vision, and so locate prey by sound or sight.
Their loud hoot can sometimes be heard up to 1 kilometre away.
Woodlands.
The ear tufts on their heads aren’t actually ears, they’re long bits of fur.
“I joined the team in September of 2021 as a Farm Hand. This was my first proper job and the experience was very insightful as working with animals there is never a dull moment. I have always loved animals and have had many different animals growing up such as guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and horses so I knew the animal industry was a career I would like to be involved in. Since joining Kew Little Pigs Farm I have had the opportunity to care for the animals and share my knowledge with all the customers that have visited the farm. I was promoted to Head Farm Hand in January 2023.
I look forward to my journey here at Kew Little Pigs Farm and hope to see you on the farm soon!”
