Owl Shows Off Silent Flight Superpower

Season 33 Episode 9

Just how quiet is a barn owl in flight? The answer, as it turns out: very quiet indeed.

Evolution has endowed owls with a suite of superpowers: precision hearing, incredible eyesight, night vision. Add to that the power of virtually silent flight, and no prey in their path stands a chance.
