More updates on Newton and his adopted babies! The owlets are growing quickly. They're getting their adult feathers, they're flying, and Newton must be so proud. Soon, Newton will return to his role as an education ambassador, while the young owls learn one of the most important skills they'll ever need—how to hunt live mice—before they're released back into the wild. One of the most fascinating parts of watching them grow is seeing their adult plumage emerge. Eastern Screech Owls come in several natural color morphs: • Gray morph – The most common color, especially in the northern part of their range. Their gray plumage provides excellent camouflage against tree bark. • Red (rufous) morph – A beautiful reddish-brown coloration that blends in with dead leaves and certain types of bark. This morph is more common in the southeastern United States but can be found throughout the species' range. What's even more amazing is that gray and red owlets can hatch in the very same nest. Parents of one color morph can produce offspring of either color because plumage is determined by genetics, with some influence from evolutionary pressures related to camouflage and climate. There is also a much rarer brown intermediate morph that displays characteristics of both gray and red. Eastern Screech Owls are a wonderful example of color polymorphism—the occurrence of multiple natural color forms within a single species. Watching these little ones transform from fluffy nestlings into beautiful young owls has been an incredible experience, and before long they'll be ready to begin their lives in the wild.
