A Vulture's Keen Sense Of Smell

A vulture can smell the body of a dead animal from over a mile away.

While the sense of smell is the least developed sense for most birds, the vulture is an exception.   Vultures have excellent senses of sight and smell to help them locate food.  Because of this, vultures often have large territories and will spend a lot of time soaring to locate their next meal.

Unmoveable Owl Eyes

Owls are unable to move their eyes in the sockets because of the size and tubular shape.

To compensate the fact that they are unable to move their sockets, they have a long flexible neck which enables them to turn their head 270° in either direction horizontally and at least 90° vertically.
