Baby Owls Nap Facing Downwards Because Their Heads Are Too Heavy

Did you know that even the baby owls can get more cute than we expect? Have you ever seen or else have you imagined the way they sleep? Normally, the grown-ups nap upright while the young ones do not nap in the same way since they have heavy heads. But, they will sleep somehow until they grow old. Therefore, most of the owl babies nap on their bellies while turning their heads to a side.



It's really cute to see them nap on their tummies, facing downwards. "I've just discovered that baby owls sleep face down like THIS because their heads are too heavy. Also, I don't think I've seen owl legs before…." Mark Rees (@reviewwales) June 21, 2020
