Liu Wei looked up.

The eagle owl was more than fifteen meters above the ground, which meant that he had to climb the big tree to have a chance to contact the eagle owl.

"Brothers, I want to climb this tree and reach the Eagle Owl's position. The picture may be a little shaken. Please understand!"

"Sister Li, Sister Li!"

"Awei, be safe at night!"

"The tree is too tall, so act according to your ability, Ah Wei!"

"Don't worry, have you forgotten the scene where Ah Wei climbs a tree to tease the Bengal tiger?"

With the help of gecko shoes, Liu Wei climbed the tree more easily. He stopped on the branch below the eagle owl.

Turn off the thermal imaging function and adjust the light of the headlight. "Brothers, the owl's vision is very sensitive. Too strong light will cause damage to its eyes, so we use low light to shoot it. Can you see it? Can you see the buckle? 1."

"111111"

The light blue light shines on the Eagle Owl. It bends its head and stares at the live broadcast room in Liu Wei's hand. It has strong curiosity and twists its head very flexibly, like a dancing Xinjiang girl.

Liu Wei said to the live broadcast room: "Brothers, it is very curious about what I am holding in my hand now? It has been observing.

You see, its head is very flexible and can twist at high frequency.

The owl's head can rotate up to 270 degrees, which is very rare in the animal world. For it, the flexible head can help it pay attention to the movements of the surrounding environment so as to catch prey more smoothly.

We all know that twisting the head significantly for a long time will cause poor blood circulation and cause dizziness and brain swelling, but owls do not.

Because its body structure has evolved to adapt to the need for its head to twist significantly. "

Liu Wei pointed at the owl's neck with his other hand and said, "The owl's neck bones are wider and will not cause blood vessel compression due to large rotation of the head, and there is a blood reservoir in the aorta above its neck. , can continuously supply blood to the brain, so even if it moves the head frequently, it will not cause drowsiness and discomfort."

"Goooo~"

The eagle owl's chest floats,

It made a dull sound, retracted its curiosity, and looked straight at the grass ahead with its two big eyes.

Liu Wei: "I didn't let it feel threatened. Its mind was on the moving prey. The animal in the thermal image you just saw might become its dinner tonight!"

Liu Weigang finished speaking.

The eagle owl spread its wings, flapped twice and flew out.

"Fuck~"

Liu Wei felt a gust of wind hit his face.

"Brothers, I can see clearly that the wings of this eagle owl are more than one meter spread, which is rare even in the eagle owl family. I estimate that the weight of this eagle owl should be more than 5 kilograms. It’s already very big in the big owl family!”

Liu Wei flipped the camera, and the eagle owl spread its wings and glided away. After finding the target, its entire front body, including its head, dived downward, almost vertically. Before landing, it quickly stretched out its curved claws and landed perfectly.

"Caught it?"

"Awesome, no sound at all, killing people invisible!"

"Awei, will it come back to the tree?"

"It should be possible," Liu Wei said. "The owl also has a strong sense of territory. Its brain will construct a map of the surrounding environment to ensure that there are no obstacles when it flies and hunts.

It just chose to observe here and then launch an attack. It is obviously very familiar with this flight route. After it finishes eating, it will return to this tree!"

Zoom in.

The eagle owl held a mouse in its hooked beak. The head of the mouse was no longer visible and it swallowed it into its mouth.

It swallowed the whole mouse into its belly bit by bit.

"Fuck, just swallow it!"

"This is the first time I've seen an owl swallow its prey alive. I've raised it before, and I always cut the meat into small pieces for it!"

"Awesome, completely different from the owl I had in mind!"

"I always thought that the owl was a docile bird. After watching Awei's live broadcast, I realized that it is a raptor. My knowledge has improved!"

After the eagle owl devoured the mouse, it twisted its neck and looked around, then flapped its wings and flew up. Instead of returning to the tree as Liu Wei predicted, it chose to continue gliding on the grass, gliding very low. Almost close to the ground!

"Here it comes, it's about to attack again!" Liu Wei, who had night vision eyes, watched every move of the eagle owl on the grass very clearly, and he was fascinated.

The eagle owl stretched out its curved talons again, stopped in place, turned its head and looked around, as if to determine whether its current position was safe.

After it confirmed, it picked up the captured mouse in its mouth and swallowed it whole in one bite in the same way.

"A rat in one bite!"

"You can't tell. It's a big head, but it's quite edible!"

"Why does it only eat mice? Didn't we see a lot of rabbits just now? Why doesn't it catch rabbits to eat?"

"Maybe it's because the rabbit is too big!"

Liu Wei sat on a relatively strong branch and popularized science: "The eagle owl preys on a wide range of prey, including foxes, hedgehogs, porcupines, etc. For it, preying on a rabbit is not a problem, but it has a Predating habits - selective predation.

We often hear people mention that owls are beneficial creatures and play an important role in environmental protection.

Everyone knows that rabbits have a strong reproductive capacity. If there are no natural enemies to allow them to reproduce, the ecology will be destroyed. Eagle owls will choose to prey on rabbits when the number of rabbits exceeds the environmental load.

Perhaps for a long time, it will use rabbits as its first choice of food, just to maintain ecological balance.

Although we saw a lot of rabbits tonight, it may be that the Eagle Owl needs to raise them. On the contrary, it feels that rats have been too active recently, so it will choose to hunt rats.

The owl has a nickname called Environmental Guardian, which comes from its hunting habits! "

The audience in the live broadcast room suddenly felt that the owl is such a magical creature. It feels a bit like working with a fixed salary, a civil servant in the animal world!

Liu Wei continued to sit in the tree and wait for the eagle owl. He believed that after the eagle owl had eaten its fill, it would return to the tree to stay according to its familiar flight route.

"Damn it, another one!"

"This is the third one! Still eating it!"

"Hahahaha, first place in eating!"

"..."

"Wairui, the fourth one!"

“I finally stopped eating!”

The live broadcast room was full of exclamations.

After the eagle owl ate the fourth mouse, it called twice, walked a certain distance on the grass, and then flew up in the direction of Liu Wei.

"I'm coming!"

"Awei, you were right, it did fly back!"

This time the eagle owl flew directly to the tree trunk where Liu Wei was sitting, and the dark brown claws on his feet were tightly hooked on the branches, like a lock.

It turned its head ninety degrees and stared at Liu Wei with its big eyes. Liu Wei saw the long eyebrows raised above its eyes and couldn't help laughing.
