A closeup of a fledgling Australian Boobook with its head wrapped like a headscarf or cloak. The wrap is pale blue and made of fleece or felt. Being young, the owl's feathers are still a little fuzzy a mix of cream and chocolate. Those around its beak and brows are the lightest, forming a white mask in the shape of an X, flanked by a darker brown eye-shadow on the sides. The owl's eyes stare into the camera with pupils that are wide, but not completely black. There is a pale blue cloudiness to them that matches the wrap, giving this Boobook an overall ghostly look.
