The Long-Eared Owl was completed on 2.26.2010. Owls continue to be a favorite subject of mine. Their bright, inquisitive expressions are fascinating to see and fun to draw. The pattern on the front of the Long-Eared Owl was especially fun to render. The illustration is based on a photo by the talented wildlife photographer Patty Bruno.
The Long-Eared Owl is a medium sized owl being about 15 inches long and having a wingspan of about 40 inches across. They have a large range and are found in temperate forests of North America, Europe and Asia. It is believed that the large and distinctive ear tufts are used to make the owl appear larger to possible predators and other owls. Like other owls the Long-Eared Owl feeds almost exclusively at night, locating it's prey by sounds. It feeds on rodents, small mammals and birds. In controlled conditions these owls have been able to find it's prey in complete darkness. The hoot of a male long-eared owl can be heard up to a nearly a mile away.
