This is a photograph of an owl perched on a stand in a room. The owl has distinct barred plumage and is sitting on a circular perch. The room has tiled walls and a plain floor. The owl appears calm and composed. The photograph is framed by a broad green border which adds contrast to the black and white tones of the inner image.
