Sorry to throw science into a silly comic, but the reason owls necks are so flexible is because they cannot move their eyes. “Their eyes are not really “eyeballs” rather than they are elongated tubes that are held in place by bony structures in the skull known as Sclerotic rings.” It’s an evolutionarily adaptation that allows them to see in the dark.
