Did you know most owls have asymmetrical ears? One ear is higher on the head than the other. This gives owls incredible directional hearing, allowing them to pinpoint prey using sound alone. #OwlFacts #DidYouKnow #SoundScience

Panel 1: In a floral field under a night sky, which is navy blue with orange and pink clouds, sits a non-speaking spotted owl named Sundae and flies a fiery-throated hummingbird named Macaron. Macaron flies in front of her and she turns her head to look at him. Panel 2: Macaron flies behind her. Sundae turns her head around to see him. Panel 3: Macaron flies below, Sundae turns her head in that direction. Panel 4: Macaron flies up and says, "Is maintaining eye contact requiring more effort from you? I won't be offended if you don't make eye contact especially if my natural movements increase that difficulty. We can accommodate each other." There is a brown heart above Sundae who has her head tilted upwards.
Owls have tubular eyes so they actually can't move their eyes like human eyeballs can.
