The Ruru Information Report

                                                            

                                                                What it is.

The Ruru is the NZ native owl. Like most owls, the Ruru can fly silently past because of their
flight feathers.

Description.

 Moreporks are plump fluffy birds with white spots all over their brown body. Moreporks are speckled
brown with orange/yellow eyes set in a dark face.

They have a short stubby tail. The female Moreporks are taller than the males.

Social behavior and habitats.

Moreporks are good at hearing and are very sensitive to light.

The Morepork is found in open habitats in the South and North Islands.

The rising 'quee' call is often mistaken for a kiwi’s shrill call. Moreporks are widely distributed
throughout the native forests of New Zealand.

More about the Ruru.

Moreporks are nocturnal, hunting at night for their food. Moreporks eat beetles, moths, weta, and
spiders.
Moreporks fly silently as they have soft fringes on the edge of their wing feathers. They catch prey
using their large sharp claws or their beak.

By day they roost in trees or in thick vines. If they are visible during the day they can get mobbed
by other birds and are forced to move.
