Barred does not equal Barn.
A Barred Owl is shown in the video, your description says Barn owl, which is a completely different bird - not even in the same Family. It's Barred, I promise, and those things are fucking terrifying.
Peace.
Peace.

Re: Barred does not equal Barn.
Yes, it's a Barred Owl, and Barred Owls eat small birds. I am guessing that in this video it is near a nest and the birds are attacking it to try to keep it away from their eggs or babies.
Barred Owls are more active during the day than most owls.

Re: Barred does not equal Barn.
Those little birds are Dark-eyed Juncos and the action is known as mobbing. Some people also believe that small birds do this as a way of "proving their braveness" to other members of their group. It really isn't an "attack" because the Juncos can cause absolute zero harm to a Barred Owl. Many times other small birds will join in the action, birds such as chickadees, nuthatches, titmice, kinglets, and bigger birds like crows and jays...
