We would love to say that Coruja is enjoying the beautiful colors of the fall foliage, but that's doubtful. Owls are famous for their incredible night vision, but when it comes to color, their eyesight is quite limited. Unlike humans, who have three types of color-sensitive cells in their eyes, owls rely mostly on rod cells, which are specialized for detecting light and movement in dim conditions. This adaptation allows them to see exceptionally well in the dark, but it comes at the cost of perceiving a wide range of colors. While owls may be able to distinguish some muted shades, their world is thought to be seen mostly in blacks, whites, and grays—perfectly suited for their nocturnal hunting lifestyle.
