No. Owls regurgitate food into the gullet of a baby owl by putting their beak down the beak of the owlet. With that comes some moisture.

Do ducks swim or float?
They float.Ducks feathers are covered in an oil which their glands produce, this oil prevents the feathers from getting soaked. So when you see a duck "cleaning" its feathers, it's actually distributing this oil.
How can ducks swim in freezing water?
I keep ducks as home as pets and in winter, I noticed that they become very puffy because they grow something called "duvet" in French (I think it means the same thing in English) and those duvet feathers are softer and warmer. Duvet is used a lot in pillows, coats and quilts or blankets today. Some animals that have the duvet feathers are gooses or swans. Many birds have duvet feathers too.
Do chicken feathers grow back after a dog attack?
Yes they do. We have 2 Dominique hens who were attacked by Jack Russel terriers. Feathers were everywhere and we assumed the birds were killed. We found both of them, bitten and stripped of feathers on their backsides. At the advice of our vet (why bring a $3.00 chicken for a $25.00 vet visit) we cleaned the wounds with warm water and kept the straw bedding clean and slowly the wounds did heal, the feathers grew back and you would not be able to tell they were ever attacked. Chicken are apparently very hearty birds.
Why ducks cannot float in water containing too much detergent?
