This guide, "The Barn Owl," authored by D.S. Bunn, A.B. Warburton, and R.D.S. Wilson, offers a comprehensive exploration of the species *Tyto alba*. Published by T & AD Poyser in Britain on November 30, 2010, this 282-page EPUB document draws upon nearly 40 years of dedicated field research. It presents a detailed and balanced account of the Barn Owl's life, informed by intimate knowledge across various habitats. The guide uniquely compares the behavior of the British race with subspecies found in other parts of the world, providing valuable insights for ornithologists and enthusiasts alike.
This manual serves as an authoritative resource for understanding the Barn Owl. It delves into key aspects of the species' life cycle, including breeding patterns, general behavior, feeding habits, distribution, and vocalizations. Enhanced by 31 photographs, a color frontispiece, and illustrations by Ian Willis, the content is presented in English. This publication is designed to be an indispensable tool for researchers, conservationists, and anyone interested in gaining a deep and nuanced understanding of this fascinating bird.
In the classic monograph mould, this study of Tyto alba is the product of almost 40 years field work by its authors and complementary observations by other dedicated ornithologists in Britain, the USA and Europe. The result is a detailed, balanced account based on intimate knowledge of the Barn Owl in varying habitats in Britain, comparing, as appropriate, this race's behaviour with that of sub-species in other areas of the world. There are major chapters on breeding and general behaviour, feeding, distribution, etc, but voice is rightly given a full treatment. The text is graced by Ian Willis's fine drawings and there are 31 photographs plus a colour frontispiece.
