Calm is therefore not silence, and you will be able to see and hear the following birds: turtledoves, pigeons, great spotted woodpecker, jay, blackbirds, starlings, passerines (blue tit, robin, bullfinch, wagtail, black redstart, yellowhammer, etc.), tawny owls (or cat-owls), barn owls (or white lady), little owls (or Athena's owl). These friendly raptors hoot at night, including the little owls whose cries may sound like that of a cat. Finally, shortly after sunset, you can observe a few bats (usually common and Daubenton's bats) flying over the park and the terrace in search of food. Totally harmless, they regulate the populations of mosquitoes and midges.
