Bundi (Strigidae)

**Bundi** (pia **mabundi**) ni ndege mbuai wa familia Tytonidae na jenasi mbalimbali ya familia Strigidae. Ukurasa huu unahusu familia Strigidae. Spishi hizi zinaainishwa katika nusufamilia Asioninae na jenasi moja ya nusufamilia Striginae.

Bundi hawa wana kichwa kikubwa chenye umbo la mviringo, mkia mfupi na rangi ya kamafleji. Kwa kawaida jike ni mkubwa kuliko dume. Mabawa yao ni marefu na mapana. Hula ndege na wanyama wadogo, wanyama wagugunaji hasa, lakini watambaachi na wadudu wakubwa pia. Jike huyataga mayai 2-7 katika tundu la mti au tago lililoachwa na ndege mwingine, pengine katika sanduku la kutagia.

Bundi wengi huwinda usiku na hupumzika mchana. Wanamlenga mbuawa wao kwa msaada ya masikio yao. Manyoya ya uso yapeleka mawimbisauti kwa vipenyo vya masikio ambavyo kimoja kipo juu kidogo kuliko kingine. Hivyo wanaweza kumkamata mbuawa bila kumwona. Mbuawa hawezi kumsikia bundi akija, kwa sababu mabawa ya bundi hayafanyi sauti yo yote kwa kuwa kingo ya mbele ya manyoya ya mabawa imekerezekakerezeka na ile ya nyuma ina matamvua. Hii inapunguza vurugu ya hewa na kwa hivyo uvumi.
