Tyto alba - Head Studies

Just a sort of reference thing to practice Barn Owl anatomy. I was going to include some basic facial expressions but I couldn't figure out how to arrange them in with everything else and didn't want to make the file any bigger anyway, so I just left them out. Maybe I'll do an expressions study later, but I definitely want to do an eye study.

Since most of you probably can't read the writing, the text next to the "Strigid" and "Tytonid" heads is just explaining how Strigid (typical) owls have hawk-shaped heads and comparing them to the Tytonid (Barn) owls, which have somewhat vulture-shaped heads, only with downward-pointing beaks.
