Little owls exhibit several unique behaviors and adaptations that contribute to their successful survival in diverse Eurasian environments. One key adaptation is their exceptional nocturnal vision, allowing them to hunt effectively in low light conditions. Their silent flight, thanks to specialized feathers that reduce noise, enables them to approach prey stealthily. Additionally, little owls have excellent hearing, with asymmetrical ear placements that help them pinpoint the exact location of small mammals or insects in the dark. Their ability to rotate their heads up to 270 degrees allows them to scan their surroundings without moving their bodies, enhancing their hunting efficiency. These adaptations collectively make little owls well-suited for thriving in a variety of habitats across Eurasia.
