Here's a few highlights from this Flickr gallery from Richard Jackson.
It was hard to just pick a few. There are some unique poses in the gallery, so I encourage you to check it out.
I like how dynamic this one is!
I picked this one because it made me think of a comic book cover. It has a lot of dramatic flair.
Definitely an action pose!
Oh my goodness, I am very here for Goth Owl.
Goth Owl is always one of my favs to revisit. I'd love to get to see some of these Australian owls in person.
Photo in OP looks like a cabaret act in a fabulous bejewelled gown just come on stage, about to lift that wing to cover the lower part of their face before bursting in to a dramatic song and dance number.. ๐โค
Yes, it's very dark and compelling!
Sometimes it gets very challenging to pick with image to lead with when they're all so good. I feel the need to find the one that will entice the most people to click and see the rest of the post. This one just seemed so tempting, and the look on the face is both inviting you in and challenging you to leave. It's an expression I think is very fitting to the overall look of the Sooty, so even if this is the only pic someone took the time to look it, it still gives them a great impression of an owl they aren't likely familiar with.
I love how much thought you put in to your posts, your effort is appreciated!

Well put.
I like to think I've perfected the latter part of that look myself.. ๐๐
I'm happy to hear you are enjoying it here!
I'm sure you can choose to look pleasant and inviting whenever you please, though knowing when you need time alone is valuable too! ๐
For owls that are superb.
