COMPLETELY IN THE DARK?

The ultimate hunter of North America is the great horned owl, perfectly adapted to survive where many other species can't even compete. In the darkest night the owl's eye structure permits perfect vision at light levels only '/looth of that needed by man—night to an owl appears much like an overcast day to us. Adding to this binocular vision is an ex- tremely acute and highly directional sense of hearing, on the order of ten times better than man's. So, the owl, with unequaled senses of sight and hearing, able to determine direction accurate to within just one degree is almost never completely in the dark.

At sea, you're never in the dark with any of
