Barn owls enjoy a diet of lizards, amphibians, and insects, as well as the occasional bat or bird. Surprisingly, they avoid earthworms even when they are plentiful and other prey is scarce.
Because they are, even though regurgitated, just bones and fur and scales which, bones, never smell as skin and meat and other sources of protein do, with the exception of insects. The scales may sometimes begin to smell if the gizzard (where owls filter the meat from the fur and bones) has not properly taken the meat off, as the same with the bones and fur. This occurrence is rare but with some luck you may have found yourself a vile-smelling house.
Would other birds experience similar effects on the clutch as the owl?

Do owls sleep with their eyes open?
Crested Geckos do not have eyelids. They rehydrate their eyes by licking them.
You can tell if a crested gecko is sleeping by when the little spikes above its eye are slightly angled down.

What could a thing be in your eye that is like a piece of fuzz and moves with your eye movement?
These are called "floaters".
It is possible that it is a small - very small - piece of detached retina or more commonly, structural debris from the vitreous humour. As we age, the vitreous humour, a jelly like sac that fills our eye cavities, can begin to detach and condense from the sides of the eye and the retina. The protein threads that hold this together can become lose and float through the eye as the vitreous humour becomes more liquid. Sometimes, as the vitreous detaches, it can rip or tear the retina along with it. This is an emergency!
If you notice you have floaters, you should see an eye doctor immediately to rule out retinal detachment. Fortunately, most people's floaters develop without harming the retina. In fact, most people notice floaters from time to time and they are mostly normal and benign. Once you've seen a doctor to make sure everything is okay, make sure to see them again if you notice your floaters worsening, or if they are accompanied by flashes of light.Floaters may be annoying and distracting. If that is the case, rest assured that you will learn to ignore them with time. However, sometimes floaters can be debillating. Some vitreous retina surgeons will perform a vitrectomy to remove floaters if they feel it is warranted. In vitrectomy surgery, the vitreous humour is sucked out of the eyeball and replaced with a saline solution. The operation is done on an outpatient basis, and most patients sight returns to normal within a matter of weeks. Although the complications of vitrectomy are treatable, they include cataract, retinal detachment and rarely, infection. Vitrectomy is an invasive surgery that should only be considered if you have floaters that significantly interfere with your vision and/or your quality of life.

Depth perception is affected by the characteristics of the viewer's eyesight, as well as the nature, shape and color of the observed object. A small child, for example, has poor depth perception.

Flammulated owls eat mainly insects such as beetles, crickets, or butterflies. They also occasionally eat shrews. I happened to see one hunting at night, though, and it seemed to be attacking a small bird.
