Ruru In Slippers - Giclée Print

Ruru In Slippers - Olivia Wirepa

The Ruru (Ninox novaeseelandiae), also called the Morepork or Tasmanian spotted owl, is a small brown owl found throughout New Zealand and Tasmania. Its name is derived from its two-tone call. Four subspecies of the morepork are recognized, one of which is extinct and another that exists only as a hybrid population. The bird has almost 20 alternative common names, including mopoke and boobook—many of these names are onomatopoeic, as they emulate the bird's distinctive two-pitched call.

It has dark brown plumage with prominent pale spots, and golden-yellow eyes. It is generally nocturnal, though sometimes active at dawn and dusk, retiring to roost in secluded spots in the foliage of trees. The morepork feeds on insects and small vertebrates, hunting by pouncing on them from tree perches.
