🎓 Why Owls Are Awesome
Owls have incredible night vision, allowing them to see in very low light.
Their super‑hearing helps them find prey even under leaves, snow, or grass.
Owls swallow their food whole and later spit out pellets made of bones and fur; a favorite science activity for kids.
Some owls, like the Great Horned Owl, are powerful enough to hunt animals larger than themselves.
Baby owls (called owlets) stay in the nest until they learn to fly, and they make adorable chirping sounds.
