Ural Owl

This Ural Owl (Strix uralensis) is distinguished by its broad gray facial disk, encircled by a fine dark border, which frames its piercing gaze and small orange-yellow beak. Its plumage, streaked with gray, brown, and white, provides subtle camouflage, while its long tail accentuates the elegance of its silhouette. Perched on a branch and mounted on a black base, it is presented in an attentive posture, with its head slightly tilted.
