In the Harry Potter Philosopher's Stone, the Eeylops Owl Emporium in Diagon Alley introduces the owl species in the wizarding world. "Eeylops Owl Emporium – Tawny, Screech, Barn, Brown, and Snowy." Owls are an important communication tool in the magical world. Let's take a look at the owls in the book.

1. Tawny Owls

Tawny Owl's scientific name is "Strix aluco" and sells for 10 Galleons at the Eeylops Owl Emporium. The Tawny Owl is a medium-sized owl in the genus Strigidae, which is commonly found in woodlands in Eurasia. The underparts are pale with dark stripes, and the upper parts are brown or gray, and several different color types are known in more than a dozen subspecies. Rowling explained: it is indeed very lucky that owls are suddenly flying around during the day. Things that Muggles don't know about."

2. Screech Owls

The Screech Owl sells for 15 Galleons at the Eeylops Owl Emporium. Percy's owl, Hermes, is a Screech Owl. Screech Owls are not a single population, but a genus of 24 species, named for their shrill calls. The genus Screech Owl is closely related to the genus Scops Owl. In 1910, Screech Owl and Scops Owl in the Eastern Hemisphere merged into the genus Otus, but after 2003, it was based on a series of behaviors, biology Geographically, morphologically, and DNA separated again and became independent again as Megascops. Rowling once said on the official website that Ron's owl, Pigwidgeon, was a Scops Owl. However, in the film, Pigwidgeon is played by an African White-faced Owl (Ptilopsis) named Mars.

3. Barn Owls

Barn Owls is priced at 10 Galleons at the Eeylops Owl Emporium. The barn owl and the grass owl belong to the genus Grass owl, which has 15 species (excluding subspecies), 11 species of the grass owl, and 4 species of the barn owl. The Longbottom’s owl is a barn owl. “A barn owl brought Neville a small package from his grandmother.”

4. Snowy Owls

The snowy owl's scientific name is "Bubo scandiacus", and even Hedwig is sometimes called "the snowy owl". The snowy owl is a large owl of the genus Owlidae, also known as the white owl, named for its almost snow-white body. Snowy owls are mostly diurnal birds and are very characteristic owls.

5. Eagle Owl

The scientific name of the eagle owl is "Bubo bubo", also known as "big owl". Malfoy's eagle owl was always bringing him packages of sweets from home, which he opened gloatingly at the Slytherin table. The eagle owl is the largest owl in the world, reaching over 80 cm in length, making it suitable for transporting oversized packages.

6. Great Grey Owls

Rowling said Errol from the Weasleys was a Great Grey Owl. Its scientific name is "Strix nebulosa", and it is classified in zoology as the genus Owl family. It is a very large owl distributed in the northern hemisphere. “When she came up with Errol, the frail, suffering, and overworked Weasley owl, she had images that she thought she had seen: It was a very funny, huge, fluffy, grey, seemingly dizzy bird, she doesn't know what breed it was. In fact, she particularly wonders if this is a real photo, or if it's an image distorted by imagination. So when she first went to the aviary at Leavesden Studios (where The Philosopher's Stone was being filmed). When she turned the corner and saw a whole row of huge, grey, furry, seemingly dazed owls winking at her, she was ecstatic! Each owl is an exact replica of the hazy memory picture in her head. They are all owls who play Errol. They are all Great Grey Owls.”

With the popularity of Harry Potter, more and more people are keeping owls as pets, allegedly because people have read about them in books. Author Ms. Rowling said on her official website, “If it is true that anybody has been influenced by this book to think that an owl happiest shut in a small cage and kept in a house, she also mentions that she would like to take this opportunity to say as forcefully as she can: please don't.”
