Anyone know their owls?I'm sure i was once told that we only have three types of owl native in the uk?One type can apparently be identified if unseen,by the screech as the other two hoot,i think this is the barn owl?Is this info correct,or am i completely confused?I've got a noisy one just outside my window at the mo,and was trying to narrow down which one it is.Cheers,Mike

The most common owl in the UK is not the 'barn 'or 'tawny' variety, but the 'teat'..........

I can tell a Tawny and used to be able to tell little owl if I hear one again and see it I will be set for a while.
