The  diet  of  three  owl  species  was  analysed  in  32  sites  localised  in  the  Masovian  Landscape  Park  and  its   outskirts  to  determine  the  structure  of  small  mammal  communities.  Study  was  done  in  the  years  1993–2016,  5,728   vertebrate prey (including 4,001 mammals) were collected. Five species of soricomorphs, six bats, 14 rodents and one  species of Carnivora were found. Among mammals, Myodes glareolus had the greatest share in the diet of Strix aluco.  Tyto alba most frequently caught Microtus arvalis and Sorex araneus, while Asio otus – M. arvalis and M. oeconomus.  Those prey, together with Apodemus flavicollis and A. agrarius, dominated in small mammal communities. One site of  Crocidura leucodon was found on the western edge of its range in Poland. The share of bats in the diet of S. aluco was  small (0.5% of mammals), Plecotus auritus was most frequent. Muscardinus avellanarius was found in forests of the  southern part of the Masovian Landscape Park. It was relatively often caught by S. aluco in favourable habitats. Shares  of M. oeconomus, M. agrestis and M. avellanarius in the diet of owls were significantly higher in southern part of the  study area remote from Warsaw.
