Lysiga
Basic Information
Anatomy
The Lysiga mostly resembles a typical owl. Instead of being able to turn their eyes, they can turn their necks up to 270° to keep their target in focus of their eyes. Other than normal owls, the Lysiga has a 3rd eye centered above their normal pair. The male's tails are longer with a bushy feathered tip made of soft down feathers to impress their partners and balance out their more dominant chest and else front heavier bodies.
Dietary Needs and Habits
They are silent hunters, barely even disturbing leaves or snow when they glide across it. Their prey mostly consists of smaller mammals and reptiles.

The Lysiga have a very good sense of hearing and excellent night vision, but very poor color vision.
