It is one of the smallest owls. It is slightly smaller than the Striated Scops Owl. Although it looks larger when perched, it has longer wings than other small owls in flight. It is a master of camouflage with its feathers resembling tree bark. When viewed from a distance, it can be mistaken for a tree branch. Since it is a species that lives in trees and hunts in open areas at night, it prefers large areas where it can easily hide when perching, in densely wooded areas with holes, and where large insect-class prey is abundant. They have a monogamous breeding season. Although there is no evidence, it is thought that they prefer the same mate the following season.
