Big round eyes, ear tufts and a tiny ribbed bobble hat give this owl a funny, cozy look. It grips a branch covered in snow, with pine needles below and a small fir tree on the hill behind. The chest and wing feathers are drawn as rows of scallops, a gentle challenge for children who like small patterns. Browns and creams work well, with a bright hat on top. Put this winter owl drawing up for a classroom theme on night animals. Down in the clearing below, a gentle visitor has stopped by, the deer in a winter scarf.

Perched on a pine branch, an owl in a little winter bobble hat watches the snow fall.
