I saw the owl on the left and immediately thought of:
A ruru (morepork) sitting on a dance, looking down with a disapproving air

New Zealand - A Ruru a.k.a. Morepork was found on the roadside and taken to New Plymouth Vet Group. The owl was checked for fractures, treated with snacks + TLC, and soon released. NPVG are well-funded so no dono link today 😊 Source: stuff.co.nz/taranaki-dai... #owlsintowels 💛🦉
It's a close-up of a Ruru wearing a towel bundled like a headscarf. The towel has thick stripes of white and mint green like a Celtic FC supporter. The owl's eyes are golden-beeswax yellow and highly suspicious of the camera operator, spying from within the shade of the towel. The whole thing is vaguely like the meme of Homer Simpson receding into the bushes.

A digital sketch of a female anthropomorphic Morepork Owl. She has a cute smile on her beak, long hair, feathery arms and hands, a wide feathered tail and clawed feet. She has a nearly flat chest and is wearing a cute one piece swimsuit, and has spotty markings on her arms and hips.

'Ururangi' the Ruru / Morepork (a species of owl native to New Zealand) was taken to Wairarapa Wild Bird Rescue in Masterton, reportedly "after narrowly escaping becoming a cat's snack." Want to donate to WWBR? ngahuia.org#donate Source: fb.com/133156601585... #owlsintowels 💛🦉
A Ruru Morepork in close-up is wrapped in a fresh straw-yellow towel, with wide golden mustard eyes. The owl's plumage is mostly chocolate brown with tan on the forehead, and gingery caramel around the chin like dried out pine needles. There's white feathers around the eyes which together with the pale olive grey beak form a Y shape, edged with rictal bristles like wayward eyelashes. At this distance, the irises are stippled with fine dark dots, and you can practically make out the model, wattage and extended warranty of the tube lights reflected in each pupil. A highly photogenic owl.

Him Here is critical of the role of the morepork in A Remarkable Place to Die tonight. Both scenes had it fully alert during daylight hours. And when it flew off, they added sound effects of noisy wing flapping when, he tells me, they are silent in flight.

@birdandbeach.bsky.social Thank you so much for the lovely Frank the Rūrū tea towel I was given for my birthday today, and extra-special thanks for the card + coaster. Such a delight :-) I've long loved the portrait version (pictured on my bedroom ceiling some years' back) & will love these too :-)
A dark purplish-blue tea towel with a picture of a rūrū, and a matching card and coaster on top. The same tea towel hanging on a rail next to a handtowel. The coaster on an old-fashioned lace cloth, with a mug next to it. Many pictures behind some A0 perspex, including one of the same morepork.

Here's one last push for my fellow night Owls to vote for our native night owl, the majestic Ruru AKA Morepork. Voting ends this Sunday and the Ruru has never won before. Get to it!
