Description
Wild Life Safari by WWW.Theanimalguy.org at Seven Ponds Nature Center Dryden Michigan.
The Barn Owl is a pale, long-winged, long-legged owl with a short squarish tail. Depending on subspecies, it measures about 25�45 cm (9.8�18 in) in overall length, with a wingspan of some 75�110 cm (30�43 in). Tail shape is a way of distinguishing the Barn Owl from true owls when seen in flight, as are the wavering motions and the open dangling feathered legs. The light face with its heart shape and the black eyes give the flying bird an odd and startling appearance, like a flat mask with oversized oblique black eyeslits, the ridge of feathers above the bill somewhat resembling a nose.
