Owls are amazing creatures that go to work under the colors of night.
I found this painted owl on the side of a tiny building in Winnipeg.
Cindy Knoke found a real life owl at “The Living Coast Discovery Center in The San Diego Bay National Wildlife Refuge. It’s amazingly gorgeous, and if you click on Cindy’s photo of the owl, you will get to see an entire post filled with this beauty!
My painted owl is very pretty, and lovely to look at. However, when I look at Cindy’s owl, I want to hold it and kiss it and hug it and love it.
A big “thank you” to Cindy Knoke, a fave blogger of mine. She takes fabulous photographs, and shares them with us. Her blog is visually gorgeous and educational. She has joined with me to help make this wonderful Owl Art post into more than just another pretty face. It now has a beautiful soul.

That owl mural is stunning! The artist caught the power and majesty of these amazing animals perfectly. I love the way the owl dwarfs the building. Brilliant! You know the owls love you back Resa, because birds know when you care about them! I love you to my friend. Be well and thank you for your kindness & thoughtfulness~
Yay! The owls love me. They love you, too! 😀
I think it’s important to be loved by animals. It fills up the potholes in our life’s road. I’m so glad we joined together for this post. Much love & many hugs to you.xo
I love owls, and this post. Absolutely beautiful mural.
I always liked owls, but I seem to have grown an extra owl heart since I posted this mural.
Thank you! 😀
Cindy’s photographs are always stunning. This post is beautiful, Resa. Just wonderful and I always think of owls as the guardians of children. I’m not sure why but I believe they watch over lost children during the night…children who are lost in their hearts, dreams and homes. Beautiful.
I really like your thoughts, Gigi! Lost children need something, someone too= guide them, especially in the night. Why not a wise old owl? I think, especially children who are marginalized… or worse, need a friend, a spirit….. a dream. Beautiful!
I love this thought, Gigi. I must have had an owl watching over me, because my life has come up roses. I love Cindy and Resa’s owls.
Two wonderful storytellers in one post ~ Resa and Cindy.
Beautiful post Resa; love the mural, and Cindy’s post of Owls is so heartwarming. I agree; Cindy is a photographer extraordinaire! ❤
xoxoxo
Kisses and kisses to you Carolyn. You are a dear heart who supports all of the beauty anyone can find. ❤
xoxoxoxo
Another great find dear Resa ! 🙂
“Lettuce prey !” 😇🙏🏻🌳🙄💗 xoxox ❤
Lol! Did the S&S put you up to that comment? Orange you glad you have cats? xoxo ❤
Of course ! Who else could set us up like that 🙂 😼 ❤ xoxox
Always been fascinated by owls. One lived nearby us for several years. Neat to watch even when they aren’t doing much of anything. Pictures and mural are wonderful…as is the title. Whoot!
Since I posted this Owl post… I’m more fascinated than ever! I just love animals. 😀
Beautiful photo Cindy!
They’ve added more murals in that area. Transcona BIZ is really getting into outdoor art. Perhaps the whole courtyard will be done….awesome!
Cindy’s owl is sooo adorable!
Guess I’ll have to return to Winnipeg to shoot the new art!
Will there be any real animals, or am I destined to shoot painted ones? Well, we all have a calling. What a hoot! 😀
Owls have a smart look, seem to have everything under control …
I like this collaboration with cindy, her blog is also one of my favorites, the photographs are always extraordinary … like this owl that watches us with so much attention.
xoxoxo
You are right! Owls look smart.
I am loving to collaborate… more and more! It is especially important during Kids’ Month, where the more bloggers I reach, the more children might be helped both personally, or through a charity.
Much love to you, (waiting for my special book!) xoxoxo
I love owls too and this is beautiful!
Thank you, Maria! 😀
I’ve always been fascinated with owls. These are gorgeous and beautiful.
Sometimes I have dreams of owls. In a good way. 🙂
I think owls are magic.
I wonder what they mean in dreams? I’m sure it’s important.
I love your new poem, and as always I need to think on it. I’ll be back to your blog, with my scents too worth. 😀
I know you know my meaning. xx
Owls in dreams must have an important significant to the dreamer itself.
I am back! and I miss you Resa. 🙂 See you in my blog later. 🙂
⭐ ❤ ⭐
Awww…:) ❤
Now that some owl … reminds me of an Oriental species. … and oh my to the intricate design from the artist!
It is a beautiful owl! I’m glad you got to see it!
Both look wise and wonderful.
Yes, they do! I am working on your contribution for tonight’s post!!
