The Barn Owl (Tyto alba) is one of the most wide-spread of all land birds. Sometimes they are called monkey-faced owls because of their appearance. Other common names are church owl, golden owl, rat owl, and stone owl.

They are found on all continents (except Antarctica) and large islands and occur over the whole of Australia, including Tasmania.

The Barn Owl is found in virtually all habitats but much more abundantly in open woodland, heaths and moors than forested country. They usually roost by day in tree hollows but have also been found in caves, wells, out-buildings or thick foliage.

Barn Owls feed on voles, frogs and insects, but are economically valuable birds as they also prey on animal pests like rats, shrews, moles and mice.

Like most birds, Barn Owls do not have teeth to chew their food. Once caught, the Barn Owls prey is swallowed whole. In some cases larger prey may be ripped into more manageable size pieces before being swallowed.

After being swallowed the prey is then processed by the Barn Owl so that the owl can make use of all the nutrients it needs to survive.

The prey goes directly to the gizzard where it is broken apart by digestive enzymes. The bones and hair that are not digested and utilized by the owl are later regurgitated in the form of a pellet.

Small compact balls composed of fur, bones and feathers. Regurgitated by an owl after feeding, these pellets can reveal the type of critters that are preyed upon by the owl and give students an idea of predator-prey relationships.
