What is an Owl?
Owls are birds that love the night, known for their excellent eyesight, silent flight, and curious hoots. They live all around the world in forests, deserts, and even cities. Most owls weigh between 4 ounces and 4 pounds (100 grams to 2 kilograms) and can live up to 25 years. Their feathers are super soft, which helps them fly without making a sound while hunting. Owls eat mice, insects, and small animals, and they use their sharp beaks and talons to catch their food. They are famous for turning their heads almost all the way around and for their big round eyes that help them see in the dark. Some owls make gentle hoots, while others screech or whistle. These amazing birds live in trees, barns, or holes in cliffs, often sleeping during the day and waking up when the stars come out.
