Abstract

Owl’s nocturnal habits stand out from most birds, and in various cultures they are associated with wisdom or even the magical world of Harry Potter. We describe here a unique fossil of an extinct owl species that was instead active during the day. This species links to some of the few daytime active owls and fills in a six-million-year gap in their evolutionary history.
