Running late on #StunDay which just happened to be #Superb_Owl day. Here is one of the Great Horned Owletts that I came across in Sunset Park in #LasVegas Looks like it caught and scored a #touchdown to me. Marked sensitive for the catch.

The bird has horizontal stripes of black, gray, and buff of various consistencies all along its body. The head is rounded and mostly fuzzy down of white, black, brown, and buff. The eyes are large and yellow with big round black pupils and the beak is black.

I decided to go out 30 minutes before Sunset on #Superb_Owl day to get new photos of Owls and I lucked out and found these two Longeared Owls in a tree in the middle of an off-leash dogpark (of all places) based on a tip. So here's some brand new content for #Superb_Owl_2026 📷: Panasonic G9 II

So for this #Superb_Owl Sunday, I have to reuse some photos from last year at this time as I didn't see any Owls in 2025, but I've seen one in 2026 already (second photo) which is a good sign I'll hopefully have all fresh content for this day next year. #Superb_Owl_2026

I don't know anything about American football, and don't watch it, but I really enjoy the #superb_owl photos one Sunday every year.

We have the fabulous pantaloon-wearing burrowing owl, the gorgeous and ghostly snow owl and the imposing screech owl too 🦉

#Superb_owl #linocut #printmaking #owl #sciart
My tiny linocut burrowing owl is printed with a hint of ground line on a white Japanese paper background in pale brown ink with a grey beak and yellow and black eyes. It stares at the viewer looking fearsome despite its small size and the way it looks like it is wearing jaunty pantaloons. My tall narrow linocut on white Japanese paper shows a screech owl that is perched on branch with its body facing left but its head is turned forward to look straight at the viewer. It is printed in dark brown ink. As described, The symbols of Québec, its provincial bird, the snowy owl and its tree, the yellow birch cover the hand-carved map of Québec in this linocut. The owl swoops across a stand of birch. The block was inked 'à la poupée' (with different colours, Payne's gray, gold, black and yellow, in different areas) and printed by hand on lovely Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper. Each print is 23.5 cm by 31.8 cm (9.25" by 12.5"). My linocut snowy owl on white Japanese paper soars over a snowy landscape with the aurora borealis in the night sky behind it, printed in shades of dark blue

Omg so much cute owl action and I really, really want a long-eared owl stuffy now #superb_owl
Two long eared owls screenshot from the Owl Research Institute camera on explore.org. And they are soooo cute, like fluffed out, trying to stay warm bird stuffies on branches. It is all sucked in little heads, tufted ears and very rounded bodies.

My favorite #superb_owl is the burrowing owl. They're out during the daytime and pint sized! I have plans to make a burrow in the open space behind my house and put cameras in it. All in good time...
