Long-Eared Owl Illustration - Vintage Bird Art & Wildlife Reference #307223 (License: Personal Use)

This finely detailed vintage artwork depicts a long-eared owl (Asio otus) in a naturalistic pose, gripping a mossy branch with sharp talons. The bird’s richly textured plumage-featuring streaked browns, tawny buffs, and subtle black barring-is rendered with scientific accuracy, while its iconic ear tufts and golden-yellow eyes convey vigilance. Soft background foliage enhances the sense of a quiet woodland habitat at dawn or dusk.
