Although owls do not usually fly in groups, when there is more than one of them together, it is referred to as a “parliament”. Owls are very efficient hunters, partially because they are able to fly so quietly. With the way the air flows over their wings, the feathers muffle the sound of the wind passing over. This makes owls very good at catching their prey, because often times they don’t even see them coming. Owls have large rounded wings, though they are very light, which is yet another reason why they can fly through the air without hardly making a sound.
