i think that an owl has better vision cuz it cant turn its head 360 degree and it can see better at night
Answer
While both the hawk and the owl have exceptional eye sight, they are both very specific in their design and use- The owl uses primarily close range sight which is extremely sensitive, allowing it to pick up prey in low light while the hawk has better distance vision that is better attuned to day time hunting. The two cannot be directly compared.
What is meaning of seeing a large bird of prey two days in a row?
Not all naturally occurring phenomenon can or should be interpreted as an omen.
Birds of prey are territorial in nature. This means they tend to stay in the same general area most of the time.
Seeing a bird of prey two days in a row is not uncommon, in fact, if you travel he same route daily you may continue to seethe bird for most of a season.
If you see two different birds, (for example a falcon and a hawk) on two consecutive days in very different places (for example one in your neighbourhood and one where you work), then and only then might this be a sign.
The kind of bird, and the circumstance will vary the interpretation.

Red Tailed sharks are bottom feeders since there mouths faced down. So they eat algae and fish waste but they also will eat flakes, wafers, and crisps. That is the nice thing about red tailed sharks; they practically eat anything.
I believe they can. Hawks can eat just about anything due to their size and the talons. I guess it would all depend on the actual parrot in question.I have a sun conure and a hawk would kill him instantly. But a Macaw or a Cockatoo might be a different story.

What is the significance of the red tail hawk in American folklore?
According to the Paul D Frost website, Red-tails are a sign of good luck according to the Mescalero Apaches. They are usually treated with great reverence and considered to be sacred. According to artwork found my archaeologists we can assume that they felt almost as if they were "spiritual messengers, intermediaries between the all-powerful gods and benighted humans, fated to act out the gods' bidding without understanding" It appears that, in general, Native American tribes felt they were a good omen, or spiritually good but it differs from tribe to tribe.

On the flip side, Red-tailed hawks were believed to be routine killers of chickens for a long period of time, gaining them the nick name "Chickenhawks".
