Description
An owl’s seeming ability to rotate its head in a complete circle is downright eerie. Are spectral forces at work here, enabling an owl to spin its head 360 degrees? Or do its neck feathers hide some anatomical secret? An owl’s apparent head rotation is part illusion, part structural design. Because its eyes are fixed in their sockets, it must rotate its neck to look around. It can actually rotate its head about 270 degrees—a marvelous anatomical feat..

Great capture Danny, it sends shivers down my spine when they do that, and the Exorcist comes to mind. Neat trick if you can do it, there are times when I wish I could do it myself.
