Owl Facts  Owl Facts Owls: Photos and Fun Facts for Kids (Kids Learn With Pictures) See if you know any of these owl facts: Owls are raptors, birds of prey, in the same family as hawks and eagles. Owls are carnivores, meat-eaters, and they swallow their prey whole. Owls eat mammals, especially rodents, reptiles, insects and other birds. Owls are nocturnal, meaning that they are active at night. Some people think that owls can turn their heads completely around in a 360-degree circle. When you study owl facts, however, you will see that this is false. Owls can turn their heads only three-fourths of the way around. Owls are in the Order Strigiformes.

How to Draw an Owl   Owls are nocturnal hunters that know how to hide, so its hard to see them in real life. But once you simplify the owl 's image it is easy to break them down into a couple of lines, and actually draw a good-looking owl in just six steps. Here's how to draw a simple owl step by step: 1) Draw the head first. In the upper third of your drawing space draw a nearly perfectly round circle, but make the circle just a bit wider on the left and right sides than it is on the top and bottom. This creates the owl 's head. 2) Now draw the body. Draw a large oval at least twice the size of the circle, just below the circle, but so that the two shapes overlap by about 10 to 20% of the circle. This big oval is the owl 's body. 3) Now draw the tail. The tail should be a long "U" shape drawn at the bottom of the oval you just made. The length should be about twice the width of the tail. 4) Add the wings inside the oval. Next, draw two long arcs insid...
