Great Grey Owls might not have the immediate cute factor that some owls do, but I think they look majestic. Just look at this one flying sideways. They have to have great hearing with such a big face. And they have such pretty deep voices.
The video I linked to just says that the owl spotted a vole about 300 yards away under 1.5 feet of snow. Its wings have serrated edges so it can fly silently. And it has to catch at least 7 small rodents a day to survive.
Once I began to look at all the “strange” looking adaptations of animals as unique answers to problems, they became much easier to appreciate.
As you said, this is what super strength hearing looks like. If a human were to really have the speed of The Flash, what would their legs muscles really have to look like? What would their eyes have to look like to withstand that speed while staying open to see where they’re going? So much would have to change from standard human form they would look alien to us.
This owl has special powers, and that look is necessary to support that, and that is amazing.
