Owls are amazing creatures that belong to a group of birds called “Strigiformes”. They have been around for a long time, with fossil evidence suggesting their existence 60 million years ago. Owls are unique from other birds because they have flat faces, big eyes, and their heads can turn almost all the way around!
These birds are mostly famous because they’re active at night while we usually sleep, which is why they’re considered “nocturnal” animals. Owls have an incredible hearing ability due to their specially designed ears, which help them listen for even the tiniest movements of their prey in complete darkness.
Another special thing about owls is their almost silent flight, which allows them to sneak up on their prey without making a sound. They eat a variety of foods, from small insects to bigger animals like rabbits or even other birds.
Owls are usually found in nearly all parts of the world except for a few places like the coldest of deserts and some remote islands. Be sure to respect these wonderful birds if you ever see one because they play an important role in controlling pests by being top predators in their habitats!
