      I'm surprised owls can eat animals as large as wallabies! Does anyone know if owls ever eat snakes?

        I saw that this was answered in the next lesson - yes, they do!

      I had no idea owls ate insects.

      I found it fascinating about the different talons on the owls determine their diet. I didn’t know this. I assumed all owls eat rodents. I was amazed at the Eurasian Eagle owl’s talons.  I found out they can take down a small deer!  Truly amazing birds!  0CE61B60-15CF-4C62-8281-5F065EFFF03B

        This photo really emphasizes the  unique talons of the Great Horned Owl.  Thank you Tammy.  I am also fascinated by their talons and how they align to grab preys!
    • It is very interesting to know more about the relationship between the structure of an owl’s feet (e.g., toe alignment, size of toes & talons) and its preferred foods.
