    13th of Owltober!
    Charlie Gilmour discovered two Little Owls in a few short weeks. Re: the first he said "This beautiful idiot fell down the chimney like some sort of strigine santa bringing the gift of himself." First photo credit POLLY SAMSON. Source: instagram.com/p/CReNTPWsNUK #owlsintowels 💛🦉

    A Little Owl is brightly lit indoors like a chiaroscuro painting, reclined within the half-wrap of a blue shirt with white stripes and held aloft by Charlie Gilmour. I'm assuming the fabric is a shirt because Charlie is topless in the uncropped photo, but that evidences nothing. The owl's feet are raised and head is turned to face camera with the wide-eyed look of a politician caught in a cheating scandal. The background is out of focus and indistinct, with colours of tangerine and deep burnt sienna.
    A Little Owl is wrapped in a denim blue coloured towel with white pinstripes, before an eggshell pink and alabaster curtain with floral embroidery. The owl has short feathers across the head, with a few longer whiskers about the beak. He looks at camera from a tilted head with pale moon-yellow eyes, accented by black eyelids which give bold definition to a small face.
    The Little Owl is released outdoors: he's a motion-blurred silhouette of feathers against a clear blue twilight sky. The setting is rural, with tall trees and hedges in the distance. Nearer to the fore are red roses and a hammock suspended between the trunks of small trees. Hands are raised holding the now empty blue fabric that contained the owl.
