This unique book penetrates the myths surrounding the owl to reveal its true nature—a swift and deadly animal perfectly adapted to the task of nocturnal hunting. Using lavishly illustrated spreads, the book shows the various adaptations that make the owl such an efficient hunter—its rotating head, large forward-set eyes, feathered camouflage, sharp beak, and keen hearing. Also examined in brilliantly illustrated diagrams are the owl’s digestive, circulatory, reproductive, and skeletal systems.
