What are the secrets on the “giant owl” room in the rainy warp zone?

Question

Off of the dark, rainy node, the one with the owl's head that follows you. The map marks a secret on the stage. There appear to be two secrets: for the child node, and for an anticube.

Answer

There are two "secrets": the four owl puzzle (denoted by a question mark on the node), and the subsequent anticube room. You can glitch straight to the hidden room (described below), but the room won't be completed until the main secret (four owls) is finished and the next room is visited.

Four owls

In four places, an owl appears at night. Speak with each one:

  1. in the waterfall level near the pillar (green tree, first warp zone), waterfall owl

  2. in the windmill level near the windmill (orange tree, air warp zone), windmill owl

  3. in the forest near the transforming cabin (green tree, outside rainy warp zone), forest owl

  4. and outside the octopus-looking building containing the revolving model of the solar system and the counting cube (pink tree, temple/science warp zone). science owl

These locations were shown on the walls of the fez-wearing elder's house (in Gomez's hometown, across the bridge).

Hidden room

After speaking with each owl, they fly to the rainy warp zone's giant owl room. When all four arrive, a panel reveals a door behind the owl statue opposite the entrance. It leads to another owl room with an anticube.

door to second owl room

The glitch lets you access the hidden room without the four owls: stand in front of the entrance, rotate the room twice, and press up to enter.
