Black Early Eric Historic Hosking Ornithologist Owls Photographs Photos Pioneer Vintage White Aluco Strix


1943 - When Owls Decided to Take a Break from Tree Life!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vintage photograph, we witness an extraordinary moment in the life of a Tawny Owl. Breaking all traditions and expectations, this rebellious bird decided that nesting on the ground was far more exciting than perching high up in trees! Meet our early pioneer owl who dared to challenge convention. Hailing from Hickling Norfolk, England, this European Black Eric Nature superstar had everyone talking back in '43. With its striking white feathers and piercing eyes, it effortlessly stole the spotlight amidst the historic backdrop of wartime Britain. As if posing for a portrait session with renowned ornithologist David Hosking himself, our feathery friend showcases its impeccable style and grace. This photo is proof that even owls have their quirky moments! The English countryside provided the perfect canvas for this avian adventure. Amidst lush green grasses and wildflowers, our audacious owl stands out like a true celebrity - capturing hearts with every click of the camera shutter. FLPA Images has truly preserved a remarkable piece of wildlife history here. So let's celebrate these fascinating creatures who remind us that sometimes breaking free from tradition can lead to unforgettable moments – just like this Tawny Owl's daring decision to nestle down on solid ground!
