The Barn Owl Tyto alba is the most widely distributed species of Owl in the world, and one of the most widespread of all birds.

Barn Owls can catch and eat up to 1,000 mice each year. Great news - more and more farmers are trying to attract barn owls to help control rodent populations in the Vineyards of the Western Cape and in Agricultural lands in South Africa.
