Best Answer

Barred owls are larger then Spotted owls. Their plumage is also lighter in color, usually with a few white or brown streaks, unlike the spotted owl, which has dark brown plumage with many white and darker brown/black streaks or "spots". Barred owls have different mating cerimonies then spotted owls. Barred owls have a lighter hoot then spotted owls, but spotted owls have a much more pleasant one.

They are very smilier in shape in appearance but have very different lives and personalities.

Can anything be done to save barn owls?

Preserve dense forests where it occurs. Although able to survive in cutover forests, this habitat is more suited to a very close relative, the barred owl. The barred owl is pushing the spotted owl out of these areas, and only the preservation of the great forests can help the spotted owl. Barred owls rarely frequent deep, dense woods.
