It is very poorly known and has been known to science for less than 30 years.[2] DescriptionThe Cinnamon Screech Owl is a small owl, roughly 21 cm long with a weight of 88-120 grams. It is tawny in colour, with streaks down the breast and mottling on the mantle and back. The flight feathers are barred, as are the tail feathers. It has dark brown eyes, a blue-gray bill, and medium-length ear tufts. No juvenile has ever been described.[2] Distribution and habitatThis owl is only known to occur in the eastern foothills of the Andes from southern Ecuador to northern Peru. It is also possible that it occurs in the eastern Andes of Colombia as well. Its main habitat is cloud forests, particularly between 1700m and 2500m above sea level.[2] References1. ^{{IUCN|id=22688840 |title=Megascops petersoni |assessor=BirdLife International |assessor-link=BirdLife International |version=2013.2 |year=2012 |accessdate=26 November 2013}} {{Commons|Megascops petersoni}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q204001}}{{DEFAULTSORT:owl, screech, cinnamon}}{{strigiformes-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Mikkola|first1=Heimo|title=Owls of the World: A photographic guide|date=2012|publisher=Firefly Books|location=Buffalo, NY, US|page=226}} 6 : Megascops|Birds of the Colombian Andes|Birds of the Ecuadorian Andes|Birds of the Peruvian Andes|Birds described in 1986|Taxonomy articles created by Polbot |
