This listing is for a limited edition, fine art print of my original painting of a Northern Saw-whet Owl called, “I’m Not Afraid Anymore.”
These owls are among my favorite. They’re super small with extra large eyes – they look extra vulnerable. This particular little fellow is brave, though.
About the bird:
From our friends at Audubon:
“Birders who prowl through conifer groves in winter sometimes find this round-headed little gnome perched there, sitting still as if to avoid notice. Avoiding notice is a task at which this owl often succeeds; it is overlooked in many places where it occurs. Late at night in the breeding season, males give a rhythmic tooting song that may go on for hours with scarcely a break. The bird was named for this song, which reminded settlers of the sound of a whetstone sharpening a saw.”
| Conservation status | Probably some declines in numbers with loss of habitat, but still widespread and fairly common. |
