Drawing a realistic owl step-by-step

Birds
Hi young artist! Today we are going to draw a wise owl sitting quietly on a branch. We will start with simple circles and turn them into a real bird step by step. Grab your pencil and eraser, and let's get started together!
1
Basic shapes of an owl: a branch and an oval for the head.
Draw a horizontal line for the branch and an upright oval above it for the owl's head.
2
A large oval for the owl's body and guide lines in the face.
Draw a larger oval below the head for the body and place a cross in the head for the eyes.
3
The shape of the owl's head with two small pointed ears.
Flatten the top of the head slightly and draw two small points for the ear tufts.
4
The wing and neck of the owl drawn with fluid lines.
Draw a long arc on the side for the wing and connect the head to the body.
5
The owl's face takes shape and the start of the legs is visible.
Sketch the round shapes in the face and draw two lines for the thick legs.
6
Details of the face with eyes, beak, and the owl's tail.
Draw the round eyes on the guide line, a beak in the middle, and the tail feathers at the bottom.
7
The owl's legs with claws holding onto the branch.
Draw the sharp claws gripping around the branch and give the wing more shape.
8
Adding feather details and the structure of the tree branch.
Add small strokes for the feathers on the chest and finish the details on the branch.
9
The completed drawing of a realistic owl on a branch.
Darken the most important lines and carefully erase all the guide lines you no longer need.
