Owls just seem to attract most folks attention. The detail you have carved into this one captures that interest. Good work Hugh!

Hugh, that little guy looks like he's just finished a mouse and is quite happy. His version of Christmas Dinner and just as content!!! Great job, your detail is to perfection!
