- Lisa is with us on IntoConnection again and she brought along a little friend. This time she joins us with the young and beautiful Echo and provides us with the ultimate introduction to the majestic barn owl. Watch the video to learn what Lisa has to say about these beauties, but for now, here are some cool facts on barn owls:
The barn owl’s heart-shaped face collects sound in the same way as human ears. Its hearing is the most sensitive of any creature tested.
In order to live and breed, a pair of barn owls needs to eat around 5,000 prey items a year. Its menu mostly consists of delicious field voles, fresh wood mice, and delightful shrews. However, they are also known to go for a more slippery and slimy snack: barnowls been observed catching fish from ponds.
The barn owl is not only the world’s most widely distributed species of owl, but is also one of the most widespread of all birds, as it is found on every continent except Antarctica. Hence, they survive in in all kinds of different habitats.

Awww I always wished to pet an owl! 🥺♥️
Can I kiss a barn owl on the face?
Yes if it's imprinted on you
Interesting barn owl video. I just uploaded a video showing the rare black barn owl, which is an unusual coloration thanks to a genetic difference known as melanism. Fascinating animals!
I LUV ECHO
These owls live here in LA they live in palm trees today when I was waiting for the bus stop at whitter california I spotted a owl flying right above me at 8:15 and went right into the leaves of the palm tree.
I am a barn owl trainer and the best in the world.You are sending negative messages about the barn owl.You should never use gloves.You are telling the people to watch out for scraches .useless. I am from Malta.
Anthony Sultana don't brag, you're not the best
The fact you started off by saying you are the best shows you talk shit
You lost me after your first sentence
Anthony, do u have Facebook messenger? I need critical care info please
Oh hell no
Freedom for Barn Owls! Breeding should be prohibited. These wonderful birds are not pets!
Dagmar Künzel incorrect my friend. Many people breed barn owls and then release them into the wild. This has been proven to increase their population. Captive bread birds as long as they are well fed and excersised have a longer and better life. Do u know that in the wild a barn owl will sit almost motionless for around 23 hours of a day? Flying only to feed once or twice. They are very lazy birds. As are all birds of prey. But i do agree to part of what your meaning, they are not a spectacle, a show bird, but in the right hands of a good falconer, this is the human equivalent of living in a 5 star hotel for life. Plenty of fresh food, warmth when needed, and vetinary care which wild owls never recieve.
Did you know 70% of wild raptors never live past a year and 90% dont make it past 5?
A licensed falconer can legally take a bird/chick from a populated nest and raise it himself but he must release it back into the wild after a period of time. This gives the other fledglings a much better chance od survival. These are facts my friend that you can research yourself.
You must understand that many people who upload videos to you tube are caring falconers, its the minority of uncaring falconers that we dont hear of that are a problem, raising birds for a few months then deciding its not for them, then were left with a bird that has took to an owner but id then unwanted and must be rehomed, alas it is a big problem, so the people you see on here are actually good people and do not deserve your negativity.
Thanks.
John.

John Slack, Thank you for your comment. I have been studying the life of barn owls for 2 years. Wild, free barn owls. Every day more than 10 hours. Also on weekends and holidays. I'm in the lucky situation to be able to afford this.
However, I have never dealt with falconers. I will make up for this. Thank you for your tip.
Dagmar Künzel no problems my friend. If you have studied so long, i agree your point. There is nothing more beautiful, than a free wild animal thriving in its habitat. Hopefully these beautiful creatures will flourish and maybe become a more popular sight rather than just a myth. 😆
these owls are filthy creatures
