Owl

"'Owls are birds of prey that hunt mostly small mammals, insects, and other birds. They are found all over the world, except the polar ice caps. They have excellent long-distance vision, but struggle to see things that are directly in front of them.'"

Spawning
Owls spawn naturally in the overworld in groups of two to three. They can be found in cold forests and taigas.

Drops
When an adult owl is killed, it drops:


 * 0-3 feathers.
 * 1-2 raw bird meat (1-2 cooked bird meat if killed while on fire).
 * 1-3 XP when killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Behaviour
Owls are medium sized birds. They are often found perched upon trees where they can be found by their distinctive calls. Owls are able to fly and will flee when approached or attacked by a player. They do not take fall damage.

They have eyes that glow in the dark.

While in a loaded chunk, an owl will lay a owl egg every 5-10 minutes.

Breeding
Owls can only breed with each other if they are the same variant. They must be adults, and if fed rotten flesh, raw rabbit meat or a rabbit foot, a baby owl will spawn. The variant of the baby will match that of its parents.

Baby owls can also be spawned by hatching an owl egg. The colour of the baby will match its mother. An egg with a higher spawn rate will have a better chance of hatching successfully.

Variants
There are three different variants of owl. The barn owl is significantly smaller than the other variants.
