🦉Owls (Strigiformes)

Owls

~250 species

Nocturnal birds of prey with forward-facing eyes, flat faces that funnel sound, and nearly silent flight. Found on every continent except Antarctica.

💡Owls can rotate their heads up to 270 degrees because they have 14 neck vertebrae — twice as many as humans.
