Look at which birds have eyes on the side, and which have eyes in
front. Prey have their eyes on the side. Predators are better off
with binocular vision - especially flying predators. It's important to
be able to judge exactly when swooping down on a mouse, and not crash
into the ground. Prey would rather see a larger angle to avoid being
caught.
