English Club Indonesia says:
Owls fly without making a sound, which makes owls different from other birds. The soft feathers on owls don’t create turbulence. Their velvety feathers have a drawback, which is not being waterproof, making them cold in the rain. Humans are studying flight in birds for aerodynamic knowledge for planes and also for biological knowledge purposes.
