It is wrapped in a towel, and held by a single hand wearing a blue medical glove. The other hand is unseen, probably taking the photo.\n\nThe owl's pupils are more dilated than in the previous photo, perhaps due to a slightly darker environment owing to the towel forming a hood over its head. The wrap appears a little tighter, more like a burrito, and one corner of the towel forms the peak of the hood. \n\nThe towel this time is a shade of red, and again has a wide collar, doing little to quell rumours of this owl's association with Dracula. Strange, because this particular species of owl is diurnal, meaning they're active during the day. Stephenie Meyer take note.",

The camera is more oblique than the first face-on pic, giving a better appreciation for the owl's hawk-like profile. The one pupil that's visible is very wide within the moon-yellow iris. The owl's chest is barred, alternating between light and dark bands, and it's clearer that the dark areas are composed of shades of brown. The talons are clenched in a tight ball, exposing exceptionally dense feet feathers. They're a much lighter shade of brown, almost ginger and almost fur-like. Fuzzy boots.",
