Owls

The owls are part of the family Strigiformes, which include about 200 birds of prey. Most are solitary, and nocturnal, except for some like the Burrowing owl. Owls hunt mostly small mammals, insects and other birds, though some specialize in hunting fish. Owls are found in all regions of the Earth except Antarctica, most of Greenland, and some remote islands. Living owls are divided into two families: the typical owls, (Strigidae) and the barn-owls, (Tytonidae).

What is a barn owls ecological niche?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

An owl's niche is their food, habitat, prey, predators, and abiotic factors in the environment. An owl's food usually depends on what species it is, but most owls eat lemmings, voles, and mice. It's predators are coyotes, foxes, and crows. Crows normally don't eat owls but it could hurt the owls when they are flying in the day. This is a niche, a habitat on the other hand is just an environment where the organism lives. These are the differences between the niche and the habitat.
