Description
Eagle Owls have inspired legends, from Egyptian hieroglyphs to Nepali and Hindu myths telling of how they have captured a spirit of the departed. When they silently take to flight, it is easy to let your imagination follow.
These owls possess specialized barbs on the leading edges of its primary flight feathers which break the flow of wind over the wing, thereby muffling sound as they fly. This makes it very difficult for prey to hear them approaching.
From an ecological standpoint, owls perform the valuable need of keeping the populations of rodents, such as mice and moles, and small mammals, such as rabbits, in check.
