For owls that are superb.

Mainly just curious to see how many non-US people we have. I know some languages have more than one word for owl.

Where are you from, and how do you say owl where you are from, and what sound do they make?

French people definitely make the difference. Maybe, they won't know which it is in front of an exotic owl that does not look like the hiboux and chouettes they know but most of the time, they won't be confuse. The eyes, the beak and the general form of the face is pretty different.
