As currently the oldest Barn Owl recorded on the BTO ringing database is 15 years 3 months old, this bird is quite a survivor.
And if it can survive another breeding season it could well become the oldest recorded
wild British Barn Owl !

14-year-old Barn Owl
We've received feedback from the BTO on a ringed Barn Owl found in one of our boxes this year showing it to be 14 years and 33 days old.
As currently the oldest Barn Owl recorded on the BTO ringing database is 15 years 3 months old, this bird is quite a survivor.
And if it can survive another breeding season it could well become the oldest recorded
wild British Barn Owl !
