Owls, birds of the order
Strigiformes, include about 200 species
of mostly solitary and nocturnal birds of prey typified by an upright stance, a
large, broad head, binocular vision and binaural hearing, and feathers adapted
for silent flight. Exceptions include the diurnal northern hawk-owl and the
gregarious burrowing owl. Owls hunt mostly small mammals, insects, and other
birds, although a few species specialize in hunting fish.
