If it's black, fight back. A creature can use its action to try to intimidate the lone black Bearowl, making a Charisma (Intimidation) check (DC 15).

Description
Not to be confused with the Owlbear, the Bearowl is a diminutive bear, with owl wings sprouting from its back. Bearowls come in different colors, and live in swarms of a single color. Although their preferred methods of travel is by walking or climbing, a Bearowl can use its wings to fly for short amounts of time, usually while hunting. The diet of Bearowls differ depending on their color, but they all share an irresistible craving for honey, causing a feeding frenzy when large amounts are found.
Black Bearowls are generally considered to be less dangerous than their cousins, but they will defend themselves should they or their swarm be attacked. Black bearowls are the smallest and least aggressive of the Bearowl subspecies, but also the most common, composing more than three fourths of the swarms of living Bearowls.
Black Bearowls eat mostly insects, berries, grass and leaves. They also eat a lot of flowers during spring, and are known for exterminating bees in their home forest and nearby apiaries by hunting bees and hives to extinction. To avoid a fight with a black Bearowl swarm, you can attempt to intimidate it or distract it with a spoonful of bee honey, unless you harmed or threaten a Bearowl of the swarm.
