Feeding Behavior
Hunts at night, seldom by day. Seeks prey mostly by flying low over open ground, watching and listening; sometimes hunts by flying down from a perch. Has excellent vision in low light levels, and hearing is so precise that it can strike prey in total darkness.
Eggs
Usually 3-8, sometimes 2-12 or even more. Whitish, sometimes becoming nest-stained. Incubation is by female only, 29-34 days; male brings food to female during incubation. Young: Female remains with young at first and broods them while they are small; male brings food, female feeds it to young. After about 2 weeks, female hunts also. Age of young at first flight roughly 55-65 days. Young return to sleep at nest or nearby for several more weeks. 1-2 broods per year, sometimes 3.

Diet
Mostly rodents. Feeds heavily on voles; also takes various kinds of mice, small rats, shrews, young rabbits, other mammals. Eats very small numbers of birds, lizards, insects, rarely frogs or even fish.
Nesting
In courtship, male performs display flight, including loud wing-claps; male feeds female. Nest: Uses sites in caves and hollow trees, also many artificial sites such as barn lofts, church steeples, abandoned houses, dry wells, crevices under bridges, nest boxes. Where no existing cavities available, will dig holes in dirt banks. No real nest built, but will arrange debris into crude depression.Barn Owls

The only major difference is that females have red-brown eyes, whereas males have darker brown eyes.

Mutations in African Grey Parrots, while less common than in some other parrot species, do occur and can result in unique and visually striking variations from the typical wild-type appearance. Here’s a description of some known mutations in African Grey Parrots:
:
- Pied Mutation: Pied African Greys exhibit patches of white or lighter-colored feathers mixed with the typical gray plumage. These patches can appear on various parts of the body, including the head, wings, and tail. The extent of pied markings can vary among individuals.
- Lutino Mutation: Lutino African Greys lack melanin pigment, resulting in a predominantly yellow or light-colored plumage. Their eyes may be red or pink, and they often have lighter-colored beaks and feet compared to wild-type African Greys.
- Blue Mutation: Blue African Greys have a dilution of the typical gray coloration, resulting in a bluish or slate-gray appearance. This mutation affects the intensity of the pigmentation, giving the bird a unique and visually striking hue.
- Cinnamon Mutation: Cinnamon African Greys have a lighter and warmer tone to their plumage compared to the typical gray coloration. The feathers may exhibit a cinnamon-brown hue, particularly noticeable on the body and wings.
- Pearl Mutation: Pearl African Greys display a speckled or “pearlized” pattern on their feathers, characterized by small, lighter-colored spots or flecks interspersed throughout the plumage. This mutation can create a beautiful and intricate pattern on the bird’s body.
