Owl Power

They can find the prey without seeing it

They can fly silently..like ghosts

They are powerful predators at night

..and today

Owls have real superpowers

..To understand

their amazing abilities,

We will be closer than ever

We will meet (Luna and Lily)

Through the eyes of the tender little barn owl chicks -

...and their extraordinary families.

We will delve into magical abilities

..of these mysterious birds

You don't want to be a mushroom,

No, no, life would be short like a mouse

Technology will reveal how they do it?

!there is no sound

This is really impressive , isn't it?

We're about to find out what..that makes "Al Owl" special

What gives these birds of prey

This powerful feature?

Owls live all over the world,

..from the frozen north

To the scorching deserts

With their familiar faces,

These attractive birds have captured our imagination

There are about 240 different species

It seems that they occupied our planet

They live on every continent except Antarctica

So what are the secrets of their success?

Owls are birds of prey.

Like their "hawks and eagles" cousins ,

And "hawks" have sharp claws,

curved beak

...and a taste for small mammals

But they also have unique skills that set them apart -

...their superpowers

To find out more, we need to go

...below the surface

...and starting from the beginning -

He has all the potential this wonderful bird

in one small egg

After 30 days of incubation,

...the chick inside is ready to appear

But it is a difficult task

An owl can take up to 48 hours

...to get out of its protective cover

What are you going to do there?

You're out yet, kiddo , aren't you?

Waiting impatiently in the nursery room

He is an exceptional father... to a bird

I saw you move then - I saw the egg move

!I moved

Lloyd Buck was fascinated by albums

...since he was young

Now, he and his wife (Rose) have a whole family of birds,

Including an owl ..(The barn is called (Kinsa)

Joanna, Brown Owl

This is a good girl!

, (Bran)

"Moses", "BJ"

and Sasha, the brown eagle

Lloyd and Rose love their birds and take care of them

..like their children

They also train them to star in films

...we have a few grains

...they have a passion

To educate others about birds

The importance of protecting it in the wild

through the eyes

for this special family,

We will learn more

About the mysterious world of owls

Lloyd and Rose will test their birds

They are expecting some new arrivals this year

Two barn owl chicks

..the first of them

ready to hatch

One more big push and you're out

Oh! Here you are

!Welcome

Yes, you did a good job

Little one, yes?

That must be quite an effort isn't it, to get out of there?

Look, it's easy to take that for granted when you're here,

but in fact ,

It's really weird -

To see a new life come into the world,

There is something really special..in it, really special

Consider saying that,

They're not the prettiest albums, are they?

This chick and her younger brother

They came from a pair of captive barn owls

When they grow up, they will give us

A rare and wonderful opportunity

Learn more about these secret birds

We have already thought of a name

Well, it's Luna

We always tend to give our birds names

Because they became part of the family

With love and care (Lloyd,

grows fast

And only six days later she met her younger sister

Lloyd and Rose continue with Lily.

!come on then

During these early days and weeks,

Lloyd and Rose need to "give" Luna and Lily

Round the clock monitoring

!Tasty

When they hatch they are completely blind and helpless,

They can't even regulate their body temperature,

They need four meals a day

Oh look!

It's just like kids, really!

But you took responsibility,

So you just have to keep going

There is still a long way to go for the album

Before they turn into a beautiful bum with superpowers

Well, should we write that you pooped today?

yes?

Nature will play its part,

But now they are totally dependent on Lloyd and Rose

...by evening

..everyone is tired

But in the wild this is the time

When most owls wake up

"brown owl"

chasing our nights

But why would you choose to live in this dark and difficult time of the day?

With the help of a special camera looking for heat,

We can enter this hidden nocturnal world

It's spring in the Highlands of Scotland

...at this time of the year

Male owls feel pressure

..this one has

A family of hungry mouths feeding in a nearby nest

Thermal camera ...reveals something else

Many mammals are active at night

So, even though it's dark

It's a perfect time to go fishing

..I passed

The female comes to catch the catch

She is a month old and has a growing appetite

One mouse won't be enough

But fortunately, there are many

Where did that come from?

No other bird of prey can hunt in such darkness

..so, at night

Albums have a sky to themselves

It is one of the keys to their success

But how can they see in the dark?

This is where the album is published

...their first unique power

The owls have distinctively big eyes

The brown owl's eyes are amazing

70% of his skull

For us, it's only 5%

..these big eyes

The owl manages to collect

...as much available light as possible

in the back of the eye

The retina has a particularly high density of rod cells

These cells are very sensitive in low light,

able to solve an extra layer of detail,

Which is sent to the brain via the optic nerve

These special modifications "mean" brown owl

You can see an image 2.5 times brighter

..whom do we see?

This helps them target lurking small mammals

..in a dark bush

..but the brown album

You have another incredible skill

They are territorial birds,

And while they are flying around their homes

They create a mind map

This means that they can find their way in the dark

Avoid invisible obstacles

So the memory of the owl is enormous

.. coupled with their sensitive vision

Which helps them take advantage of the world of the night

...at the age of two weeks,

Luna and Lily open their eyes

But there are a few more days before they can focus on anything

Now, at three..and four weeks old

They begin to understand their surroundings

..of a good night vision

She is probably the most famous superpower of the owl

But Luna was developing another one of her senses,

...even before it hatches

What's your opinion? -indeed

- Should we check his progress? lets take alook

..on occasions, if you call them

If you turn to them, they'll actually be,

..may call you

!amazing

Remarkably, the album recognizes

On the calls of their parents even from inside the egg

It is a nice! That little "chip"

We'll take him back there

Which suggests that the sound should be
