∙ 15y agoOwls have a disc shaped face, much like a satellite dish that funnels sound into its ears, one on each side of the facial disc / head one higher than the other, helping the owl to pinpoint sound accurately.

∙ 14y agoThe question should read: Do owls have keen hearing and not ears.
Owls do have ears . One is set slightly above the other and not on the same plane.
They do not have ear pinnae as humans do so the feather disc that shapes their faces collects the sound than transfers it to the ear holes.
It is thought that owls have good hearing but their sight by far better.

∙ 14y agoNo, not at all. Their hearing is 20 times better than that of a regular human.
