Great grey owls are one of the neatest looking birds of North America in my opinion. They are not only the largest owl in the continent, growing over 2 feet in height, but they have a very calm and approachable nature, which makes watching them an absolute joy. Most birds will fly away when you get within a certain distance, but these owls just like to sit and watch you. I've even had a few encounters where the owls would catch mice no more than a couple feet away from me! They are excellent hunters due to two unique heading traits. The feathers on their head are shaped in a circular manner to act as a sort of radar dish, to capture and funnel the sound towards the center. Along with their feathers, their ears are asymmetrical, unlike ours, allowing the bird to better determine and pinpoint exactly where the sound was coming from. With these enhanced hearing abilities along with their phantom like silent flight, the great grey owl holds the throne as one of the most successful hunters in the forest.
