An '''owl''' is a largely [[nocturnal]] order [[birds of prey]], consisting of numerous different [[species]] (or [[baramins]]) around the world. Their silent flight and perfect night vision are ideally suited to hunting at night. Owls are also famous for their hooting call of "toowit toowoo", although it is only some species (including the [[tawny owl]]) which make this sound, while others (including the [[barn owl]] and the [[screech owl]]) make a screeching sound instead. Further, this distinctive call is in fact not emitted by one owl; the 'toowit' portion is a contact call, whilst the 'toowoo' portion is the territorial response of a male owl.

−
Due to their [[night|nocturnal]] presence, eerie calls and striking skull-like faces, owls have often been associated with [[death]], [[magic]] and the macabre. They have often appeared in mythology and fiction as the companions of [[witches]] or [[wizards]]. A recent example of this is their role in [[J.K. Rowling]]'s [[Harry Potter]] novels, in which owls are kept by trainee wizards as pets, but also used for postal delivery.

Owls are also traditionally associated with [[wisdom]]. The [[Greek]] [[goddess]] of wisdom, [[Athena]], is often pictured with an owl.
