Owl || Photo of the week #76 | Submissions post | The birds

Owls are a group of birds that are members of the order Strigiformes. This bird belongs to the class of birds of prey (carnivores, meat-eaters) and is a night animal (nocturnal). There are about 222 known owls species that are distributed worldwide except in Antarctica.

Owls are known for their large, forward-facing eyes, unlike most other types of birds whose eyes are turned sideways. Together with a sharply bent beak like an eagle's beak and the arrangement of feathers on the head that forms a circular face, the appearance of this owl's "face" is impressive and sometimes scary. Moreover, this bird's neck is so flexible that its face can rotate 180 degrees backward.
