This piece of art was on exhibit at the Crossroads Carnegie in Baker, Oregon, March 5 - 28th, 2026.
These little plump owls have short legs, making them seem like even more of a puff-ball. They have yellow eyes and a yellowish-white beak. Only the size of a can of soda, they hunt during the day, but also during dawn and dusk. Primarily a perch and pounce hunter, but are also known to raid nests of passerines and woodpeckers. Thank you to J.D. Gantz for allowing me to use his photo as reference for this owl.
