00:06	we are going to learn some really cool things in
00:09	this video because in this video we are going to
00:12	learn about owls howls . But first we want to
00:20	hear from two of you , 10 year old Pablo
00:23	from Spain had a joke for us and said ,
00:25	what do you call a fly without wings ? A
00:28	walk . That's a good one . We also heard
00:34	from seven year old cave in from Georgia . Who
00:37	watched our video on dogs and said I love that
00:39	their sense of smell is stronger than human beings .
00:42	What a great thing you learned ! Yes . Dogs
00:44	are able to smell much better than we can as
00:48	people . It's so fun to hear from all of
00:52	you watch this entire video to see how you can
00:55	have a chance to be featured . That would be
00:57	really cool . Well , as we mentioned earlier in
01:02	this video , we are learning about owls , wow
01:06	! You are going to learn some deep facts and
01:08	learn why owls are such fascinating birds . Let's start
01:15	with this . Owls are nocturnal birds . Nocturnal means
01:19	they mostly sleep in the day and are active at
01:24	night . Mm And as you can see we don't
01:29	mean this in a rude way . But let's be
01:31	honest owls are unique looking birds . Okay they are
01:35	they just start their unique looking birds . They have
01:38	a flat face and have really big eyes . They're
01:45	big . Guys are perfect for seeing at night which
01:48	works really well for them because remember owls are mostly
01:51	active at night now not only do their eyes help
01:55	them see well at night their eyes help them see
01:58	things that are far away . In fact owl eyes
02:01	see things that are far away better than things that
02:04	are close . Isn't that fascinating ? Yeah . So
02:09	owls are really cool birds that are nocturnal . That
02:12	means they are active at night . They have flat
02:15	faces and big eyes that helped them see things in
02:18	the dark and help them see things that are far
02:22	away . Mhm . Another helpful thing for owls is
02:27	that they can turn their heads way further than we
02:30	can . Do you see how this owl's head is
02:33	turned back . They can turn their heads to see
02:36	what is going on behind them and with their super
02:39	powerful eyes they could see if they found prey and
02:46	they love finding prey . They just do you know
02:52	as cute as owls are owls are predators . Okay
02:56	they're predators . Remember predators are animals that hunt other
03:03	animals . Yeah . Mhm owls love to hunt .
03:09	In fact they hunt and eat small mammals , reptiles
03:13	, amphibians , fish , insects and even other birds
03:18	. Mhm . Now check this out . Their beaks
03:22	are sharp and so are their talents plus their wings
03:26	are super quiet while they're flying . It's crazy .
03:29	They're like quiet silent fliers . Okay No wonder they're
03:33	so good at it . They're like super sneaky .
03:35	Who knew ? Who knew ? Raise your hand if
03:38	you already knew The owls are sneaky . Okay ,
03:41	wow . How did you even know that ? Yeah
03:43	, they're sneaky . Mhm . So there's sharp talons
03:49	and beak there quiet wings , their ability to turn
03:52	their heads far . They're powerful eyes . And the
03:54	fact that they hunt at night makes an owl a
03:57	really good hunter . Mhm . Oh , hey ,
04:02	little mousey . I get it . You're getting some
04:05	food . It's at night . You know , you're
04:07	hungry and you think this is a good idea ,
04:10	Right ? This is kind of a terrible idea .
04:14	Okay . Not to be mean or anything , but
04:16	there could be an owl coming and you don't even
04:18	know what they fly so quietly . Come on now
04:22	, see , wow . Let's talk about something else
04:27	. Baby . Our walls . Yeah . What our
04:32	baby owls called ? Mm . Do you know what
04:36	are they called ? Mm hmm . Yeah . Baby
04:41	owls are called owl . Let's what a neat word
04:45	owl . Let's these are a few owl . Let's
04:48	isn't it amazing how proud they are . This outlet
04:51	is like , hey , everyone just happen to be
04:55	here . Take my picture . We just ask you
05:01	a question . But you know what ? We are
05:02	going to ask you another one here . It is
05:09	. Where in the world can you find owls ?
05:12	It's an interesting question . Do you happen to know
05:14	where in the world can you find owls ? This
05:21	might surprise you , but owls live all over the
05:24	world except for a few islands and the polar ice
05:27	caps . They can live in many different habitats even
05:30	in extreme temperatures . Wow owls are worldwide birds .
05:37	Mhm . Right . Not only that owls do not
05:41	migrate to warmer climates , they just stay right where
05:44	they are . These are tough birds . I will
05:47	stay where they are all year long . Yeah no
05:52	migrating for this bird . Yeah owls are tough .
05:56	Well actually this all just look sleepy but owls are
05:59	tough birds . Mhm . Mhm . Now we can't
06:04	make a video about owls without talking about their signature
06:08	sound . What do owls say ? Mm Yeah owls
06:16	often make a loud hoot sound hoot hoot hoot now
06:21	not every owl hoots . Okay some owls don't hoot
06:29	. Wouldn't that be sad to be an owl and
06:31	you know not be able to who you know that's
06:34	it's kind of sad you know but hey if now
06:40	all can't hoot owls can make other sounds to like
06:43	whistles , chirps , Screeches and more these sounds allow
06:48	owls to communicate and you know different sounds mean different
06:52	things . For example when an owl hoots it is
06:55	claiming its territory . So the next time you hear
06:57	an owl hoot the owl might be saying to other
07:00	owls , hey , like this is my area and
07:03	I'll find your own area . This is where I
07:06	am staying . Who who who owls are super awesome
