The Owl
Strigiformes i.e owls are,
Solitary , nocturnal birds of prey,
Upright stance, binocular vision,
With a large broad head.

Binaural hearing, sharp talons,
Feathers adapted for silent flight,
Stealth and surprise is the strategy,
Of the predator hunting at night.

They are sometimes,
Referred as benign omen,
Sometimes considered lucky,
And carried in form of talisman.

Some term them as,
Death's harbingers,
For some they symbolise,
Wisdom and vigilance.
