How do owls hunt at night?

Owls are excellent nocturnal hunters, relying on several key adaptations. They have specialized facial discs that help funnel sound into their ears, enhancing their hearing. Their eyes are adapted for low-light conditions, allowing them to see well in the dark. Owls also have silent flight, thanks to the unique structure of their feathers, which reduces noise when they fly. These adaptations allow owls to locate and capture prey, such as rodents, even in complete darkness. Their ability to rotate their heads also helps them spot prey from different angles.
