All about Owls...

Our nature challenge this week was to make an owl, My original idea was to do something with leaves, but all the things we have attempted with leaves and glue have gone a bit disastrously wrong of late!  I think we must be using the wrong sort or something :D

Instead we made our own leaves and coloured them with crayons to get a slightly uneven/feather like appearance.  The feathers were all coloured separately and cut out, then overlapped onto the outline of the owl body.

A brilliant suggestion from J to mount it onto black card too:

Plus you might just be able to see where he has added the all important talons and a branch to perch on...
