Owl Study

 

Great Horned Owl, Bubo virginianus

Study of an owl from 2nd year. The whole thing came out pretty well for my first serious water color assignment. I have some sketches of the birds that I will include once they are scanned. My class was really lucky during this project because a local wildlife reserve brought live birds into our class! One of them was blind too so it would slowly turn it's head all the way around and stare until it reached the end of its rotation and stopped to blink; one eye at a time.
