Nadankanan Zoo at Bhubaneswar is one of great zoo in India. There are various animals and birds at the zoo. One among them is Barn Owl. It is the most widely spread species of owl.
The plumage on head and back is a mottled shade of grey or brown, the underparts vary from white to brown and are sometimes speckled with dark markings. The face is characteristically heart-shaped and is white in most species.
Unique nature of this bird it hunts in the day. They specialize in hunting small mammals which they locate by sound.
