    That is really really cool. Makes a lot of sense why they’re so quiet too

      I went into the micro structures that help make silent flight possible for owls and not other birds in my big feather post yesterday, if you haven’t had a chance to see that yet.

      Also posted a short video that shows flight comparisons between a pigeon, a peregrine, and an owl to go along with it.

      Check them out if you’re interested!
