RE: Screech Owls And Blind Snakes Have Bizarre But Beneficial Relationship

in #science7 years ago

Great post @herpetologyguy
I found 2 main features of owls. Here are the features I found:

When I saw the owl flying at night arises curiosity because the owl can fly without making a sound. I wonder why owls can fly without sound? While there are planes or helicopters that need sky above the house, it makes a very noisy sound. When I read the National Geographic website, the site says there are other types that fly that silent. What are the hidden secrets? The wind that hit the pigeons caused a very risky turbulence. Not so with owls. Here's the answer! The feather on the back side has a tassel that is able to break or break the sound waves that arise when the wind flows over the wing as it flaps its wings downward. The cotton feathers on the other reinforced the muffled sound.

Features of owl eyes.
Owls can see its prey at night which is pitch black and owls will not hit the object in front of it when flying.
When the owl sees its prey he is silent and simplifies his movements. So prey does not know anymore predator named Bird Owl.

From the perks the owl can be a philosophy of life motivation.
Philosophy contained among others:

  1. The less he spoke, the more he heard.
  2. The more he sees, the less he speaks.
  3. Little did he say a little, the more authoritative.
Sort:  

The feathers on owl wings have a special design, which prevents the hissing sound the air stream makes on a rigid edge of a wing. Owl feathers are soft and fuzzy at the tips, creating something like a soft edge on the wings.
