A barn owl perches upright on a weathered fence post, heart-shaped face turned towards the camera against a soft green backdrop of evening pasture.

The barn owl's heart-shaped facial disc works like a satellite dish, funnelling the faintest rustle of a vole in grass straight to ears set at slightly different heights, letting it pinpoint prey in total darkness by sound alone. Almost pure white underneath, it hunts low over rough field margins and verges at dusk, and a run of hard winters or wet summers can hit its numbers hard.
