 Barn Owl
Barn owls are commonly found throughout the UK and Europe – in fact, you can find them on every continent of the world except for Antarctica! You can identify them by their heart-shaped face, large dark eyes and white underbellies. Their backs and wings are a beautiful golden-brown colour, decorated with grey spots.
Male and female adult barn owls look similar, but baby owls, called owlets, are white with long fluffy feathers. As they grow, they lose their baby feathers and begin to look more like their parents.
