Owls, like all other (uninjured) birds, have two feet. Sometimes a bird will choose to stand on only one foot and will tuck the other foot up inside its feathers, giving the appearance of having only one foot, but that is an illusion.

Why do owls stand on 1 foot?

Birds, like other animals, shift their weight occasionally in order to avoid muscle and tendon strain, especially when perching. When they sleep or rest they often raise one foot, later the other, which is more or less the same as a human rolling over in bed. In cold weather, they alternate raising their feet up into the insulation and warmth of their feathers in order to avoid frostbite. When they need to take off, they use both feet to get a boost from their powerful thigh muscles.
