Good call, I didn't think of that one!

Great camouflage.

I'm somewhat surprised the little beak stands out as much as it does. I'd think it would be a darker color. It is pretty cute as it is though!

It is. They are not small and easily hidden like a lot of the owls. This is the longest (though not the biggest, they're mostly feathers) owl.

Have you ever been alone at night
Thought you heard wing flaps behind
And turned around and no one's there?
And as you quicken up your pace
You find it hard to look again
Because you're sure there's some owl there...

(Ooo...ArtBot actually did a fairly good job this time! I can't decide which came out best.)
