The classic 'twit-twoo' is actually two birds talking. Your message is a duet.

- approx. 1.58–2.34 million mature individuals globally
- Habitat
- Found in deciduous and mixed woodland, mature conifer plantations, forest, parkland, and wooded urban areas.
- Fakta menarik
- The Tawny Owl's famous "tu-whit, tu-who" call is actually a duet between two birds — the female gives the sharp "kee-wick" and the male answers with the quavering "hoo-hoo-oo" — and its asymmetrically placed ears give it directional hearing about ten times more acute than a human's, letting it hunt entirely by sound on a pitch-dark, overcast night.
- Sebaran
