Owls are probably the most graceful birds in the wild.

They have so many amazing qualities. Their nearly silent gliding through the air, their ability to see perfectly in the night, and their ability to turn their heads 270 degrees in either direction is probably unparalleled in the animal kingdom. Owls are carnivorous, eating furry animals like mice and rabbits. They even eat other birds, including smaller owls. Long story short, owls are not creatures to mess with!

Parrots are also amazing birds. They are able to mimic the things they hear to a staggering degree of accuracy. Not many people know that they can also mimic body language as well, and this is very nearly as impressive. Parrots feed mainly on nuts. Parrots have a long history of domestication. Long story short, parrots are clever, cute winged creatures!

To see these two birds together, one would expect the parrot to be terrified, but in this case, the owl seems to have met its match! The parrot is not the least bit scared. Even though the parrot is several times smaller than the owl, the owl knows to tread softly as the parrot goes about thrashing in the water, likely cleaning itself or having a drink.

But one thing cannot be denied - that is the fact that these two birds are so beautiful and to see them both side by side is such an incredible sight.
