With giant eyes that take up much of its skull, the owl can see well enough at night to catch a mouse over great distance. This common hunter can be heard at night, hooting to other owls with two horn-like feathered tufts on the sides of its head. With full-color photographs and approachable text, this book shows readers how this owl lives and hunts for its prey in even the darkest night"--
