It is a nocturnal raptor belonging to the owl shaped order, known for its unique head shape and excellent night vision ability. Their eyes are large and round, usually located directly in front of their heads, which helps them to capture prey sensitively at night or in low light environments. The feathers are soft and almost silent during flight, allowing them to approach their prey silently. Food mainly includes small mammals, insects, birds, and other small animals. There are various breeding habits, but most species build their nests in tree holes or rock crevices, and some species also use old nests or artificial nest boxes of other birds. In many cultures, it is a symbol of wisdom and mystery.
