Is an owl a fowl

Answer 1

Oh, dude, technically speaking, an owl is not a fowl. I mean, they both have feathers and stuff, but owls are actually classified as Birds of Prey, not your typical barnyard chicken. So, like, if you're looking for a bird to have a chat with, maybe skip the owl and go for a more chatty fowl.

Answer 2

well....i believe it depends on the species but owls are all around better fighters. They are bigger and stronger, they can hear and see better. Also they are way more adaptive considering they can hear a mouses heartbeat from a quarter a mile away(sometimes farther) so you tell me how a falcon could even reach an owl before its prepared to take it out.

Answer 3

yes. if an owl feels threatened, it is more likely to try to camouflage itself or fly away than to attack, but if an owl's nest is being threatened, or the owl has been spotted and cant get away, they will strike with the talons.

Answer 4

No. Owls are predatory, nocturnal birds. Fowl is usually a word for two types of birds, gamefowl or landfowl (Galliformes) and the waterfowl (Anseriformes). Owls are of the order Strigiformes.

Answer 5

Although both owls and chickens are birds, owls are classified as birds of prey or raptors, not as fowl. Fowl refers specifically to domesticated birds such as chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese that are typically raised for meat or eggs.

Answer 6

Most falcons would beat an owl in flight, taking into account the stoop of the falcon, which can be over 300 MPH ( Peregrine falcon )
