Eagle Owl

I studied the Eagle Owl for this project, focusing mainly on their (and owls in general) role in ancient mythologies. I especially looked at the Roman Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, who had a companion owl perched on her shoulder who would reveal unseen truths to her. The Eagle Owl is normally the top predator and has been know to take down foxes and small deer. These are some of the drawings and prints I did for this project.
