Barn Owl

Unlike other birds of prey, the Barn Owl does not hoot; instead, it makes a variety of odd sounds that include screams, screeches, and hisses. It is an adaptable bird that prefers to nest in tree cavities, holes in rock faces, and abandoned buildings but will also nest in attics, silos, and other occupied structures. The Barn Owl's appearance is striking. Its body is adorned with beautiful goldenback, wing, and tail feathers. It has long legs, sharp talons, anda broad wingspan of up to one metre. Its otherworldly white, disc-shaped face is punctuated by two dark forward-looking eyes and a small beak.

Specialized serrations on its wing feathers allow owls to fly with preternatural silence. This nocturnal carnivore hunts from above, silently swooping down to capture its prey with its talons. Its exceptional low-light vision is ideally suited to itsevening and night-time hunting habits, but it is the Barn Owl's hearing that is truly exceptional, allowing the owl to precisely locate and capture prey in absolute darkness using only its hearing.

This coin is the twelfth issue of the Birds of Canada collection that currently has thirteen coins, issued from 2007 to 2014.

It is possible for you to store the Birds collection in a box for 24 coins of up to 34mm.
