Drawings Featuring Owls - A Certified Know-It-Owl

Knock knock, hoo’s there? Puns aside, owls are fascinating creatures that have continued to inspire many cultures, and the things they represent are as varied as they come. While commonly regarded as a symbol of wisdom nowadays, during the Middle Ages in Europe, owls were seen as foolish and eerie specters due to their association with witches. In many indigenous cultures, owls are considered birds with prophetic powers or harbingers of death, perhaps due to their primarily nocturnal nature and, of course, wide, unblinking eyes.

Today’s feature is all about these magnificent, hootiful birds of the night. Look into their eyes—doesn’t it feel like they’re staring right into your soul?
