African wood-owl are common residents in forest, forest edge and gardens in St Lucia.
They occur in pairs and are territorial.
Their beautiful territorial advertising calls- given as a duet by both male and female are a characteristic night sound in St Lucia.
By day they roost in trees with dense foliage and often use the same roosting tree(s) on a regular basis.
They usually have 2-3 chicks which stay together even after leaving the nest and move together with the adults until they are capable of surviving independently.
