The video explores the life of owls, focusing on their nesting habits, reproduction, and survival strategies. Owls prefer nesting in burrows, trees, or abandoned nests. Females lay eggs in spring, and both parents play roles in incubation and feeding. Owlets face fierce competition for food, with barn owls showing unique cooperative behavior. Many owlets perish due to predators or falling from nests. As they grow, owlets develop feathers, learn to camouflage, and eventually take their first flight. Owls are masters of camouflage and typically do not migrate, living up to 20 years in the wild.
