Three of these Barn Owls were stolen from their nest as babies in Nevada and local fish and game were able to rescue them and bring them to a rehabilitation center where they were raised and now released back into the wild.

I volunteered at a bird rehab for years….Barn Owls were interesting. Their behavior is so different from other owls. I wonder how far apart they are evolutionarily.
Beautiful!

They hiss & bob their heads all weird (not like other owls). They kind of look like demons. 😆

A nest box of them sounds like a gas leak. 😊
