From Birdspot:

Every now and again though a post pops up that gives everyone a good laugh and so it was when some wag posted the age-old question, “What was the barn owl called before barns were invented?“

Teat, Dave, Steve and plain old Owl were popular choices as were Homeless and Barnless. Some even claimed that barns were named after the owl, which makes perfect sense to us.

😁

(It's actually a pretty good article on the subject and worth the quick read!)
