Have you ever seen an owl's ear? As you can see, their ears are quite large compared to the rest of their body. Owls can turn their heads 270 degrees in each direction, which helps them see everything around them without moving their bodies. Thanks to 14 cervical vertebrae (twice as many as humans), these birds twist their necks without damaging blood vessels or cutting off blood flow to the brain.
Interestingly, owls don't have eyeballs. Their eyes are held in place by bony structures within their skulls, meaning they can't move their eyes like humans. That's why they rotate their entire heads, not just their eyes. They see very well in the dark. Their eyes are designed to see in low light, allowing them to hunt at night. It's reminiscent of a silent ninja in the night, stealthily approaching their prey. That's the sound of a dove's wings in flight. Now listen to an owl's wings. Quite unusual, isn't it?
