Megascops clarkii
- 34.9 × 29.9 mm (estimated)
- Its colour follows its family (the eggs of all its relatives are alike); we haven't found a description of this species' own egg yet. Speculative: we haven't found documented measurements of this egg yet, so we estimated its size from related birds.
Breeds in Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia
Plain white, as in all owl eggs (we haven't found a description of this species' own egg yet).
