Tyto alba Barn Owl Schleiereule The Barn Owl can fly almost silently. This enables it to hear the slightest sounds made by its rodent prey, which is hidden in deep vegetation while it’s flying up to three metres overhead. 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. Pacific Nordwest Raptors, Duncan, Vancouver Island, BC.
