Owls have a number of adaptations that make them efficient hunters. They have extra sensitive night-time vision, and an acute sense of hearing. Specialised wing feathers help to muffle the sound of an owl in flight so that it can swoop down upon unsuspecting prey. Owls also have sharp talons which they use to grab their prey.
