This large owl with the distinctive face, large forward-facing eyes, horns and deep resonant call is associated with a number of superstitions. Like many other large owls, these are considered birds of ill omen. Their deep haunting calls if delivered from atop a house are considered to forebode the death of an occupant. A number of rituals involving the capture and killing of these birds have been recorded. Salim Ali notes a wide range of superstitions related to them but notes two as being particularly widespread. One is that if the bird is starved for a few days and beaten, it would speak like a human, predicting the future of the tormentor or bringing them wealth while the other involves the killing of the bird to find a lucky bone that moved against the current like a snake when dropped into a stream.Belief in these superstitions has led to the persecution of the species in many areas by tribal hunters. The capture of these birds is illegal under Indian law but an underground market continues to drive poaching.

Owl Barn (lat. Tyto alba), a species of Bird of prey in the barn owl family, is the most common bird of the barn owl genus in the world. Lives on almost all continents

In a small area of vacant land in Southern California, burrowing owls flock together by the roadside. As trucks pass by, and planes fly to and from the Ontario Airport, these owls resort to this small piece of lasting native land. The highways, airports, and other infrastructures have driven these small owls to a small piece of land, a perfect example of humans disrupting nature.
