Dickie Deer Mouse looked up and spied him, sitting on a low limb. He was not so big as Dickie had supposed. But it was certainly Simon. Dickie knew him, beyond a doubt, by his ear-tufts, which stuck up from his head like horns. "What made you jump when I whistled?" Simon Screecher asked him. "I don't know," Dickie answered, "unless it was you." Simon Screecher chuckled.
His mate, a size or two smaller, was barred with brownish-slate colour and their heads were round and terrible looking because they had no ear-tufts. Mispoon, with his splendid wings spread half over the carcass of Ahtik, the dead bull, was rending flesh so ravenously with his powerful beak that Neewa and Miki could hear the sound of it.
In some birds the vocal organs differ greatly in the two sexes. The female has "a somewhat similar, though smaller naked space of skin on the neck; but this is not capable of inflation." 'The Sportsman and Naturalist in Canada, by Major W. Ross King, 1866, pp. 144-146. Mr. He states that the ear-tufts or neck-plumes are erected, so that they meet over the crown of the head.
"Brother Screech Owl, whose day is my night, tell us about yourself how and where you live." There were two Screech Owls perched side by side on one stump. They were not ten inches long, and had feathery ear-tufts standing up like horns an inch long. One Owl was mottled gray and black; the other was rusty-red; and the toes of both peeped out of holes in their thin stockings.
