The Barn Owl is found in virtually all habitats but much more abundantly in open woodland, heaths and moors than forested country. They usually roost by day in tree hollows but have also been found in caves, wells, out-buildings or thick foliage.

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.
