About the Bird Art:

The image is printed on Epson Premium Matte Paper with UltraChrome Ink; the color should last quite a long time. The print is then mounted on a cradled wood block and coated with a UV resistant protectant to prevent fading. Each block is signed and numbered on the back (the edition # you receive will vary). Ready to hang from a sawtooth hanger attached to the back. Watermarks will not appear on print.

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. Bird in a Box subscribers: this is the bird for August 2016.

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.
Family Owls
Habitat Forests, conifers, groves. Breeds most commonly in coniferous forest of various kinds, including open pine forest, spruce-fir associations, white cedar swamps; also mixed woods such as pine-oak, spruce-poplar, and others. In some places, breeds in oak woodland or in streamside groves in arid country. Winters in habitats with dense cover, especially groves of conifers.
