How Can an Owl Fly So Quietly?An owl's soft, fringed feathers reduce wing noise, helping it hunt at night without warning small animals.
1. At sunset, Nola perched on a pine branch and stretched her wings. Tonight, she wanted to catch her first supper alone.
2. She swooped over the meadow toward a pale-gold moth. Rustling leaves warned it, and the moth slipped behind a blue flower.
3. Nola landed on a low branch and listened to the night. Even her feathers whispered when she turned.
4. She bent one wing toward the moon. Along each flight feather, the edge looked like a tiny comb.
5. Nola spread her wings again, letting the soft fringes meet the air first. The grass below barely moved.
6. A pale-gold moth rested on a fern. Nola held her wings still above it, and the moth did not lift its wings.
7. Nola landed beside the fern without a sound. Her talons closed gently around the moth, and she carried supper home.
8. An owl's soft, fringed feathers reduce wing noise, helping it hunt at night without warning small animals.
