Postal owls all had different jobs, but scops owls were enlisted for local deliveries only, as they were small and weak fliers. The Ministry of Magic formerly used owls for interdepartmental memos, but switched to enchanted paper aeroplanes because owls made too much mess with their droppings and shed feathers. Owls were used for commercial purposes, such as those used for the Owl Post Office in Hogsmeade, and for delivering newspapers and magazines such as the Daily Prophet and The Quibbler. Because owls could find any witch or wizard whom a letter was addressed to, those who did not wish to be contacted must cast Repelling, Disguising, or Masking spells, of which a wide variety existed.
Owls had a natural affinity to magic (unlike pigs, which were thoroughly non-magical), and thus could find the recipient of a letter without an address. Soft, hair-like edges on an owl's flight feathers reduced the noise of flight, coupled with their natural camouflage, making them ideal for delivering letters. Letters, parcels, and Howlers were all delivered by owls. Owls were enlisted to aid communication between wizards.
