Barn Owl Sounds & What Each Call Means | Discover Wildlife | Robert E Fuller

[@TheKatarinaGiselle]

Aww the sweet wee little barn owl hearing thunder for the first time! ❤ We are all children of God who get frightened by nature from time to time. Isn't it an amazing sight to see a baby owlette experience thunder for the first time! Precious! All animals should be loved and protected by humans- no matter their size and brute strength!

[@janetfitzgerald5794]

For heavens sake...I always thought a sc reech owl was its own species. Always, always, something new to learn. Especially on this channel!

[@marthasundquist5761]

EUROPE AND US have different owl species, for instance, they have no great horned owls there, and US has no Tawny Owls. Europe does not have Screech owls either.

[@janetfitzgerald5794]

thanksMartha, but not exactly the answer to my question. I will do a search. Screech owl is just a nickname not a species on its own...its the barn owl. is this correct?

[@marthasundquist5761]

@janetfitzgerald5794 I believe it is it's name but there are several species. The most common in the US is the Eastern Screech Owl. They look kinda like baby sized Great Horned owls. The barn owls in Europe may be nicknamed screech owls...or just commonly called that although it is not their proper name.

[@RobertEFuller]

The barn owl is actually not a screech owl, it's just a colloquial nickname here in the UK. There are 22 different species of screech owls, and the barn owl isn't one of them!

[@TheKatarinaGiselle]

So true! Always something new to learn!!

[@dinitroacetylen]

3:22 -- you know things got serious when an owl starts speaking Morse code.

[@susanasalinas4273]

Owls are so amazing! They have beautiful feathers too. Thanks Robert, can't wait for the next adventure!!

[@baddnurse5443]

This is wonderful and informative ❤thank you

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad it was helpful!

[@user-up6bh3jb7e]

I love barn owls. They are beautiful❤

[@oblonghas]

I love how the barn owl looks. When they dip their heads and move them side to side with their bum raised is truly intimidating.

[@HeadphonesUK]

Owls move their heads like that because their ears are uneven placed on each side of their head, so they move their head to get an almost 360 degree radar of their surroundings

[@mirrepoix]

@@HeadphonesUK they're referring to the barn owl's threat display, where they use the swaying of their large round faces to help intimidate and make themselves appear bigger. 3:31 owls can rotate their heads because their eyes are so large, they're fixed in the socket. so they can't move their eyes to look in a different direction, they have to move the entire head. the uneven ear slits do help them identify sound with better precision, but they don't have to bob their heads to use this

[@TheKatarinaGiselle]

I find them more endearing and wise rather than intimidating or frightful. I'm sure the mice and smaller birds are intimidates though!

[@dizzylizzy_369]

I've never been able to choose my favorite type of owl because I love them all so very much...I will admit though that the barn owl continues to mesmerize me more and more every time I watch them with their unique beauty and vocals ❤

[@melissamarioth9554]

I agree

[@thomaswilleborts6771]

Thank you for the language of the Barn owl. ❤🪶

[@noep8043]

His scientific name is curious, Tyto Alba, is like the name of a Salsa singer haha! My favorite bird of all time

[@francoisebeylie2923]

Alba, album, means white in Latin.

[@glassowlie]

Tyto is owl, and alba is white. So its name is literally the white owl.

[@AC-ni4gt]

I never found barn owls scary. I find their sounds and appearance adorable.

[@h.n.4060]

I heard a noise like this while out in the middle of nowhere (totally pitch black) to do some night photography. It's pretty unnerving when you can't see it and don't know what it is (In fact, I'm still not sure if I heard a barn owl or if it was a fox or some other animal).

[@Guinevere-2j7]

Thank you so much for educating us on the language of barn owls. The screech belongs to the gothic literature.

[@RobertEFuller]

Yes it certainly does

[@miketausig4205]

I totally agree with that statement…from the dark and empty ramparts of a deserted castle somewhere in Bovaria!

[@kerrykestrowl6785]

The chitter when gylfie chats to her chick to gets its attention to eat is cool lots to listen for in the barnowl world thank you ref very interesting

[@RobertEFuller]

Pleased you liked ut

[@MsLeenite]

Thank you, Mr Fuller. I like the chirps and beak clacking. The clip of the little owlet frightened by thunder is so sweet!

[@melissamarioth9554]

[@laurenconradie5328]

Hi Robert, could you please do videos for all of the UK's owls? These are sounds that bring me comfort since I've worked with Barn Owls for just over 4 and a half years. ❤❤

[@RobertEFuller]

Yes I will.

[@rami_ungar_writer]

Remind me to watch this again when it comes time to edit my owl horror novella.

[@leahkilley6581]

Absolutely beautiful! Amazing video! 🤍🦉

Very interesting! I appreciate your providing us with information.

[@RobertEFuller]

[@allenholmes2353]

This is so interesting. Love the video 😊

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Luceforall]

You know, I am more of an eagle/hawk/kestrel fan, but I can't help following your narrated videos on owls - absolutely fascinating! Thank you ❤

[@crystalgaskins8270]

That was so cool… and informative! Thanks 😊

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed

[@crystalgaskins8270]

I enjoy everything on this channel!!!

[@shilohndrah]

Thank you Robert for the great language lesson on Barn Owls🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@theck672]

Thank you for this educational video, so helpful❣️

[@BlackFlagHeathen]

Barn owls are one of my favorite animals. They’re so beautiful and majestic and adorable. Thank you for this informative video. ❤️⚫️V⚫️❤️

[@LadyTarasque]

Love this video :D well put together.. are we going to get a tawny owl version? 👀 (Can we please? :D ) :43 fashionabowl barn owl.. wonder which one it is

[@RobertEFuller]

Will do!

[@loiswilcken1758]

Thank you for the enlightenment. I'm a musicologist, so I truly appreciate the attention to sound that you have shared here.

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed the barn owl sounds 😃

[@anna-rosephipps3132]

Thank you for translating into English the language of barn owls, Robert. So precious..love them even more as i get to understand them better. Looking forward to learning about the other species of owls now.Thank you sp much

[@RobertEFuller]

Yes I’ll be doing more owl videos

[@Silver..]

it is so nice to have something like this around for those who want to be familiar with why orions mate is screeching all the time

[@sandramyer7081]

Its great to see and hear the various owls! Its great and thank you, Robert Fuller, and others; so interesting❤️💕

[@lizzparis9060]

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT vid‼️Thanx😺

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Such great footage, thank you! Poor lil chick getting scared by the thunder. I love ALL owls we have 2 1/2 acres and often hear the calls of “who cooks for you who cooks for you- all?” from the Barred Owls. It’s such a soothing sound.

[@davevandebrake4481]

Outstanding Audio!Video and Narration! Well Done!

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you liked it!

[@judyd1536]

Wow! He did great! Right on cue!

[@LKBRICKS1993]

Amazing I love learning bird sounds

[@soniaribeirokloth1914]

Hi, Robert! Amazing informative video!!👏 Thanks for sharing these precious and significant moments with us!! 🙌🤩😍👍🙏😃

[@sandramyer7081]

They are Smart Owls and you showed us so much intelligent these Owls are - TY💕

[@marinaps5302]

before we had a lot of owls and heard them every night, then something happened and I didn't hear them for years until a two months ago, thanks to your channel I immediately recognized the screeching of the barn owl but I didn't know what it meant, now I know "come here baby, I found us a new home"😂 I'm so happy that they are back

[@rosemaryjane9455]

Amazing! I never knew owls have so many different calls.

[@hartmutwrith3134]

Thank you Robert. All your clips help me a lot in my voluntaire role as barn owl godfather here in our south German local district of Aichtal (south of Stuttgart). I am also in touch with Pip Laker.

[@RobertEFuller]

That’s great to hear. Keep up the good work

[@Gamerafighter76]

It’s always cool when I’m hearing both Barn and Barred owls near my house

[@weeklyanimedose6277]

I loved this. I'm writing a book where ravens and owls play a heavy role, and describing their sounds is crucial when doing so. This was a wonderful watch!!❤

[@sharim]

This was such an interesting piece! I love owls best of all the birds. Now hopefully I’ll be able to recognize them by their calls! Thank you for your amazing videos.

[@mayadoka640]

Thank you so much for this --- I love owls, especially the barn owls.🥰

[@TheRoamingHistoryador]

Hoping for Tawny Owls sound compilation and their meanings.

[@o_o8203]

The Aztec saw barn owls as messengers from the underworld, and the Aztec "death whistle" sounds almost exactly like their screech!

[@NormanChester882]

Thank you Robert that's great sharing today

[@nm4472]

This was great! I learned so much.

[@craighewitt223]

Heard this lastnight, in fact there were several, this was about 11pm, deathly quiet, until that hellfire screech, sent a chill down my spine! 😂😂 From this video it seems I heard both screeching and begging. Fantastic nonetheless!

[@LordOfSweden]

Every other owl: cute hoots Barn owl: monster from the deep

[@melissamarioth9554]

They are such beautiful birds😊😊

[@LunaLei]

Oh...heheh~ a compilation of cuteness. Includes Orion too~

[@barbaraburke9926]

I am always amazed by owls! So glad I found your channel.

[@RobertEFuller]

Welcome!

[@loerro8490]

Very good informative video 😊

[@chrisdgreek]

Thankyou for this!!!!

[@StephenM-ew9oz]

I always thought that was that dang mocking bird. It’s been the barn owl all the time. That’s scary.

[@victoryv9575]

I'm baby sitting a Barn owlet presently and it has enjoyed your video!

[@AE-se9bl]

I quite enjoyed this video (as I do with all your videos) so interesting to learn ! Barnowls are so wonderful even when they screech! 🥰

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

The screech of a barn owl sounds like the emergency notification system haha. My favorite owl "hoot" is the Barred owl.

[@SharonBrown-yn6fz]

Love the beck clicking. Sounds like their dentures r loose haaaaaaaaaa. I love owls. In northern Manitoba we had owls don’t know what kind but loved to see them. That baby was so scared. Poor baby where is my parents.

[@joylong8897]

Thoroughly enjoyed and learned so much about this Owl. After hear definitely a screeche ❤🪶

[@donnalagorga3169]

I always enjoy your videos and the calls of the Barn Owl are really interesting to learn. Thank you so much for your dedication in sharing your knowledge via videos w/us!

[@LibraLady59]

Thank you for this Mr Fuller! Someone where I live in NE IL was describing an owl they've seen around here. I'm rather new to this location. It sounded like a barn owl, as she said it was white. I don't think Snowy Owls come down this far. 💜🙏 P.S. actually just looked it up & there is a small chance a Snowy Owl could make it's way here.

[@elizabethyoung4900]

Beautiful and informative video, wonderful to see. Thank you ❤

[@terredee]

Very interesting. Thank you!

[@snakeplisskenish]

Beautiful little film. Thanks for that!

[@miketausig4205]

Incredible video. I find it fascinating that the smaller barn owl fought off the larger assailant each time the nest was invaded. Thank you for passing along this absolutely stunning piece of video. Capturing such intimate video of these creatures offers us the chance to see and learn the ways of these beautiful birds that we otherwise would not see. And your setup is tremendously cool, with cameras positioned both inside and outside the nests. Thanks man. Just really, REALLY cool.

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@thomashendrick7294]

Well, thank You so very, very much for an important, awesome, friendly and informative channel. Tom

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lialica1496]

Formidable !

[@miguelcano8112]

Just beautiful very creative and imteresting.. Thank you for taking it to the max!!!🎉

[@martinatravers330]

Thank you so much for this. Owls are beautiful and fascinating.

[@Csr2317]

My cousin and I heard that call in the middle of the woods once when we were about 6. we peed our pants and booked it back home 😂

[@carollunn3370]

❤Thanks so much for such interesting information, Robert. You are the raptor expert. Love seeing all the video clips of nests, bird family life from courting to eggs, chicks, and their growth. Thank you for that, your travel photos, videos, and art. You are an extremely talented man.😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤😅😅

[@user-my8nm3dk5g]

That was so interesting and informative!! They are beautiful and their vocal calls are pretty wild!! Thank you for sharing. Well done!!! 👍

[@RobertEFuller]

Thanks

[@RepellentJeff]

Love the video. Very cute and informative. I’ve actually heard another type of call from barn owls: a quiet, gentle chirping that a mother owl uses to let her young chicks know she has food. Oddly enough, I’ve never heard this call from the barn owls you watch; only in nest cameras in other parts of the world. What could be the reason?

[@HOLLYWOODHILLS133]

That owl 🦉 fight was funny 😅

[@Australian_Made]

💗❤💗❤💗❤💗

[@susanschmid2271]

Super.

[@sharonsjustalittlebitofme]

[@DAWNBaer-zz4nx]

[@reneelascala5050]

This is a super useful compilation. Thank you.

[@robinz2000]

This was Great. Thank you.!!

[@beverleybrowning3480]

So fascinating and informative! Love to learn these things. You provide such wonderful videos. THANK YOU. Near where I live, at my friends’ camp we hear owls all the time that “hoot” - not sure what kind. They will often respond to our hooting back to them. Cheers from 🍁🇨🇦

[@TheFlyingmartini]

That's me when someone dares to wake me in the morning.

[@louisecotulla4296]

Very educational! We have screech owls here In US also, but they are a different species, very small and with a wide variety of terrifying sounds especially when th ey surprise you in the middle of the night!

[@luudest]

3:51 Isn't this a call of a parent for offering food (and this 3:58 the begging of the chicks for food)?

[@sylviamiller9047]

Wow! ❤ What a beautiful educational video thank you!

[@RobertEFuller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robin2319]

I love the owl , my favorite beautiful creature

[@Crowhillgal]

Thank you. Nice to learn about barn owls.

[@jacqueenespanol6065]

Phenomenal. Thank you Robert

[@Exayevie]

“It’s more of a -screech- _90s internet dial tone_ than a hoot”

[@lydiavidell1711]

Much like majestic barn owl, I’ll also screech for my mate to bring me food.

[@K1RM0]

Thanks For Sharing Interesting I Always Wondered What The Sound's Meant I've Actually Seen A Couple But I Hear Them All The Time 😀❤❤❤

[@luudest]

There is also the call of the female wanting to mate.

[@Blyndem]

I'm curious what, if any, sounds they are making outside our hearing range. Thank you for all these great videos, Robert.

[@dotbotha5898]

They are beautiful

[@secretagentonaroll]

very good job

[@janetfitzgerald5794]

thanks for the clarification Robert...thought we had screech owls here in Ontario
