Gail, glad you like the scans! These are from the book "The Best of Wildlife
Art" edited by Rachel Rubin Wolf published in 1997 by North Light Books. I
bought my copy from the local Barnes and Noble bookstore. Some of the art isn't
very good, but enough is that I bought it for scanning.

The Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo) is a species of eagle-owl that resides in much of Eurasia. It is also called the Uhu and it is occasionally abbreviated to just the eagle-owl in Europe. Eurasian eagle-owls are found in many habitats, but are mostly birds of mountainous regions or other rocky areas, often those near varied woodland edge and shrubby areas with openings or wetlands to hunt a majority of their prey. Bubo bubo is one of the most widely distributed of all owl species.
