Day 15 of #Birbfest2026: The Endearing Expression 🦉🧡

 


Today we're looking at the Short-eared Owl (Asio flammeus).


This fluffy, feathered friend has the most charming face! Capturing his quixotic expression in graphite was a total joy. Those intense eyes and the soft framing of the feathers make him such a compelling subject. I think he would be a fantastic challenge to paint in the future—imagine all that texture in oils!
