Its acute eyesight and hearing give it the ability to discern secrets and deceptions in the moonlit world. Although some cultures consider the owl to be an unlucky portent, the owl is also known for being silent, graceful, and perceptive. Didn't the goddess Athena have an owl? Well, yes and no. In some stories, Athena is accompanied by an owl, and in others, she actually becomes the owl. Also, in various sources, she is referred to as "owl-eyed" or "flashing eyed". The connection between the goddess and the bird are undeniable though. The owl's ability to see in the dark naturally led to it being described as perceptive, watchful, and wise - all of which are fitting characteristics for a companion of the goddess of wisdom and war.
