The way barn owl brains use sound to locate prey may be a template for electronic directional navigation devices, according to a team of Penn State engineers who are recreating owl brain circuitry in ...

When most birds take flight, their wingbeats cause a ruckus; this is typically a repetitive ‘swooshing’ noise generated by the rushing air that gets pushed by the gliding animal’s wings. Barn owls, on ...

The hearing precision that lets common barn owls find prey is helping researchers fine tune their quest to diagnose a variety of problems rooted in the human brain, not only with hearing but also with ...

Scientists are developing an artificial intelligence (AI) tool to count barn owl chicks by the sound of their calls to avoid disturbing their nests. PhD student Kavisha Jayathunge, at Bournemouth ...
