"Análisis de las presas de la Lechuza de Campanario (Tytonidae) en Oaxaca Central, México". Neotropical Biology and Conservation (in Spanish). 11 (1). doi: 10.4013/nbc.2016.111.03. ISSN 2236-3777. Barn owls are relatively common throughout most of their range and not considered globally threatened. If considered as a single global species, the barn owl is the second most widely distributed of all raptors, behind only the peregrine falcon. It is wider-ranging than the also somewhat cosmopolitan osprey. Furthermore, the barn owl is likely the most numerous of all raptors, with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) estimating, for all barn owl individuals, a population possibly as large as nearly 10 million individuals (throughout the Americas, the American barn owl species may comprise nearly 2 million). [1] [66] Severe local declines due to organochlorine (e.g., DDT) poisoning in the mid 20th century and rodenticides in the late 20th century have affected some populations, particularly in Europe and North America. Intensification of agricultural practices often means that the rough grassland that provides the best foraging habitat is lost. [67] While barn owls are prolific breeders and able to recover from short-term population decreases, they are not as common in some areas as they used to be. A 1995–1997 survey put their British population at between 3,000 and 5,000 breeding pairs, out of an average of about 150,000 pairs in the whole of Europe. In the US, barn owls are listed as endangered species in seven Midwestern states ( Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Missouri), and in the European Community they are considered a Species of European Concern.

The Owl Bar comes equipped with a 4K camera and high-quality speakers and is designed to manage the broader ecosystem of the room and provide a seamless experience for remote attendees. Owl Labs is committed to developing hybrid meeting solutions that provide “meeting equity,” ensuring that remote attendees are as engaged and productive as their colleagues in the room. The barn owl is a bird of open country, such as farmland or grassland with some interspersed woodland, usually at altitudes below 2,000 metres (6,600ft) but occasionally as high as 3,000 metres (9,800ft) in the tropics, such as in Ethiopia's Degua Tembien mountain range. [32] This owl prefers to hunt along the edges of woods or in rough grass strips adjoining pasture. It has an effortless wavering flight as it quarters the ground, alert to the sounds made by potential prey. Like most owls, the barn owl flies silently; tiny serrations on the leading edges of its flight feathers and a hairlike fringe on the trailing edges help to break up the flow of air over the wings, thereby reducing turbulence and the noise that accompanies it. Hairlike extensions to the barbules of its feathers, which give the plumage a soft feel, also minimise noise produced during wingbeats. [33] Behavioural and environmental preferences may differ slightly even between neighbouring subspecies, as shown in the case of the European T. a. guttata and T. a. alba, which probably evolved, respectively, in allopatric glacial refugia in southeastern Europe, and in Iberia or southern France.

The bird is known by many common names that refer to its appearance, call, habitat, or its eerie, silent flight: white owl, [8] silver owl, demon owl, ghost owl, death owl, night owl, rat owl, church owl, cave owl, stone owl, monkey-faced owl, hissing owl, hobgoblin or hobby owl, dobby owl, white-breasted owl, golden owl, screech owl, straw owl, barnyard owl, and delicate owl. [6] [9] "Golden owl" might also refer to the related golden masked owl ( T. aurantia). "Hissing owl" and, particularly in the U.K. and in India, "screech owl" refer to the piercing calls of these birds. [10] The latter name is also applied to a different group of birds, the screech-owls in the genus Megascops.

Witherby, H. F. (1943). Handbook of British Birds, Volume 2: Warblers to Owls. H. F. and G. Witherby. Unusually for a medium-sized carnivorous animal, the barn owl exhibits r-selection, producing a large number of offspring with a high growth rate, which have a low probability of surviving to adulthood. [63] Its typical lifespan is around four years. [9] In Scotland, the species has been recorded living up to 18 and possibly even 34 years. A significant cause of death in temperate areas is starvation, particularly during the winter, and with significant snow cover. [64]

The Owl Bar works in tandem with the Meeting Owl, allowing remote attendees to have a complete view of the room and integrate fully into meetings. The Owl Bar can also be paired with other Owl devices in larger conference rooms to ensure that remote attendees do not miss any part of the discussion.

On average within any one population, males tend to have fewer spots on the underside and are paler in colour than females. The latter are also larger, with a strong female T. alba of a large subspecies weighing over 550g (19.4oz), while males are typically about 10% lighter. Nestlings are covered in white down, but the heart-shaped facial disk becomes visible soon after hatching. [16] Denny, Jim (2006). "Introduced birds: Barn owl". Birds of Kaua'i.
