There are several owls in the Harry Potter series. The most notable is Harry's own owl, Hedwig. The Weasley family have an owl named Errol while Ron and Percy have their own owls called Pigwidgeon and Hermes. The Malfoy family have a Eagle owl and the Longbottom's have a Barn owl.
The third eyelid is also called the nictitating membrane, and many other birds also have it, including other raptors. A barn owl can eat up to 1,000 mice each year, usually swallowing them whole.
