A different theory suggests that the size difference between male and females is due to sexual selection: since large females can choose their mate and may violently reject a male's sexual advances, smaller male owls that have the ability to escape unreceptive females are more likely to have been selected.

But we don't have to interpret them as a bad omen. Look at the Sioux Indians who think of owls as the guardian of afterlife. This doesn't give owls a bad image.

To their loved ones, the owl was a symbol of doom. Overall, the owl was merely an announcer of a fact that could not be changed. The role of the owl was in they eye of the beholder. Owls are special creatures because they have light bones, wings that help them fly quietly, and can turn their heads around. Dana Terrace (writer) and Bridget Underwood (director) (August 7, 2021).

If Hooty actually is a few thousand years old, he would be one of the oldest known living characters in the series to date, the other one being the Bat Queen. Humans have two articulations. This allows the owl to pivot on the vertebrae column much like your body can pivot on one foot.

The owl kills its prey using these talons to crush the skull and knead the body. [26] The crushing power of an owl's talons varies according to prey size and type, and by the size of the owl. The burrowing owl ( Athene cunicularia), a small, partly insectivorous owl, has a release force of only 5N. The larger barn owl ( Tyto alba) needs a force of 30N to release its prey, and one of the largest owls, the great horned owl ( Bubo virginianus) needs a force over 130N to release prey in its talons. [31] An owl's talons, like those of most birds of prey, can seem massive in comparison to the body size outside of flight. The Tasmanian masked owl has some of the proportionally longest talons of any bird of prey; they appear enormous in comparison to the body when fully extended to grasp prey. [32] An owl's claws are sharp and curved. The family Tytonidae has inner and central toes of about equal length, while the family Strigidae has an inner toe that is distinctly shorter than the central one. [31] These different morphologies allow efficiency in capturing prey specific to the different environments they inhabit. This was confirmed in " O Titan, Where Art Thou" in the scene where Hooty is eating some fire bees by the campfire - he has teeth in his mouth, deep into his throat, making him look similar to the mouth of a Sarlacc from Star Wars episode VI.

I am friends with an author who wrote a book in which the owl was a messenger of death. Instead of this being a bad thing, the owl provided comfort to those who were suffering physically and wanted to die.Hooty and Lilith were initially enemies. While Lilith was still the coven leader at the Emperor's Coven, she attempted to arrest Eda at her house. But Hooty, being a state-of-the-art defense system, easily defeated her and the Coven Scouts she brought along, utterly humiliating her. Cholewiak, Danielle (2003). "Strigiformes".

Unique Features of the Owl’s Skull and Beak House alteration: Hooty can change his body, and therefore, the location's structure, in any way he wants. Notably, he can add pipes and electricity to the house.

After planning for Eda to be branded with a Bard Coven sigil, in addition to taking Raine's place during the draining spell, Hooty goes to the head of the Titan with most of the CATs. [21] He reminds Eda to scream loudly if she needs help, and tearfully bids her goodbye, before receiving a kiss on the head from her. Soon, Hooty, Lilith, and the CATs are discovered and restrained. Raine is brought to the platform where the other Head Witches are at, so that the draining spell can commence as normally planned. [22] Under the Collector's control [ ] The supposed fossil herons "Ardea" perplexa (Middle Miocene of Sansan, France) and "Ardea" lignitum (Late Pliocene of Germany) were more probably owls; the latter was apparently close to the modern genus Bubo. Judging from this, the Late Miocene remains from France described as "Ardea" aureliensis should also be restudied. [42] The Messelasturidae, some of which were initially believed to be basal Strigiformes, are now generally accepted to be diurnal birds of prey showing some convergent evolution toward owls. The taxa often united under Strigogyps [43] were formerly placed in part with the owls, specifically the Sophiornithidae; they appear to be Ameghinornithidae instead. [44] [45] [46] The ancient fossil owl Palaeoglaux artophoron It seems as if owls are either seen as positive or negative depending on where you come from or what your culture is. Most owls share an innate ability to fly almost silently and also more slowly in comparison to other birds of prey. Most owls live a mainly nocturnal lifestyle and being able to fly without making any noise gives them a strong advantage over prey alert to the slightest sound in the night. A silent, slow flight is not as necessary for diurnal and crepuscular owls given that prey can usually see an owl approaching. Owls' feathers are generally larger than the average birds' feathers, have fewer radiates, longer pennulum, and achieve smooth edges with different rachis structures. [18] Serrated edges along the owl's remiges bring the flapping of the wing down to a nearly silent mechanism. The serrations are more likely reducing aerodynamic disturbances, rather than simply reducing noise. [19] The surface of the flight feathers is covered with a velvety structure that absorbs the sound of the wing moving. These unique structures reduce noise frequencies above 2kHz, [20] making the sound level emitted drop below the typical hearing spectrum of the owl's usual prey [20] [21] and also within the owl's own best hearing range. [22] [23] This optimizes the owl's ability to silently fly to capture prey without the prey hearing the owl first as it flies, and to hear any noise the prey makes. It also allows the owl to monitor the sound output from its flight pattern. One essential adaptation is the flexibility and lightness of the owl’s wing bones. The bones are lighter than other birds, making them more maneuverable in flight.

Owl Skeleton: An Incredible Adaptation for Flight

As seen in " Art Lessons with Luz", Hooty cannot distinguish between a real person and a drawing and very easily freaks out as a result. Additionally, the cervical vertebrae are interconnected by solid ligaments and muscles, enhancing the owl’s ability to rotate its head.
