Introduced by David Attenborough
The Private Life of the Barn Owl
In days gone by, the Barn Owl, pale as a ghost and silent as the night, would haunt church towers and old farm buildings.
It is as useful in ridding farms of rats and mice as the cat, but man is unknowingly responsible for the gradual disappearance of this friendly hunter.
