Owls and Birds of Prey in the United Kingdom

"Of all birds, these are the chief carnivores; most hunt down living prey. Owls are highly specialized, with superb eyesight and hearing. Most, like the Long-eared owl, are nocturnal, but some, such as the Short-eared owl, are also active by day.

Birds of prey hunt by day. Both groups of birds have acute vision, powerful legs and feet armed with sharp talons for catching prey, and strong, hooked bills for tearing it up. Superb fliers, many remain perched for hours between feeding forays, while others are far more aerial, spending much of the day aloft." RSPB Description.
