Schleiereule (Tyto alba) - White barn owl
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schleiereule
Die Schleiereule (Tyto alba) ist eine Vogelart aus der Ordnung der Eulen (Strigiformes) und der Familie der Schleiereulen (Tytonidae). Die Schleiereule ist eine sehr helle, langbeinige Eule, die keine Federohren aufweist. Zu ihren auffälligsten Erkennungsmerkmalen gehören das herzförmige Gesicht sowie die verhältnismäßig kleinen, schwarzen Augen. Sie ist nachtaktiv und am Tage nur an ihren Ruheplätzen sowie am Brutplatz zu beobachten.
Die Schleiereule kommt als Brutvogel in vielen Regionen der Welt vor. Sie fehlt in der Tundra, den tropischen Regenwäldern sowie großen Teilen Asiens und in den Wüsten. In Mitteleuropa ist sie ein verbreiteter und häufiger Brutvogel, der vor allem in baumarmen Siedlungsgebieten im Tiefland vorkommt.

The barn owl (Tyto alba) is the most widely distributed species of owl and one of the most widespread of all birds. It is also referred to as the common barn owl, to distinguish it from other species in its family, Tytonidae, which forms one of the two main lineages of living owls, the other being the typical owls (Strigidae). The barn owl is found almost everywhere in the world except polar and desert regions, in Asia north of the Himalaya, most of Indonesia, and some Pacific islands.[2]
Phylogenetic evidence shows that there are at least three major lineages of barn owl, one in Europe, western Asia and Africa, one in southeast Asia and Australasia, and one in the Americas, and some highly divergent taxa on islands. Accordingly, some authorities split the group into the western barn owl for the group in Europe, western Asia and Africa, the American barn owl for the group in the Americas, and the eastern barn owl for the group in southeast Asia and Australasia. Some taxonomic authorities further split the group, recognising up to five species, and further research needs to be done to clarify the position. There is a considerable variation between the sizes and colour of the approximately 28 subspecies but most are between 33 and 39 cm (13 and 15 in) in length with wingspans ranging from 80 to 95 cm (31 to 37 in). The plumage on head and back is a mottled shade of grey or brown, the underparts vary from white to brown and are sometimes speckled with dark markings. The face is characteristically heart-shaped and is white in most subspecies. This owl does not hoot, but utters an eerie, drawn-out shriek.
