Analysis of Little Night Owl



Civetta notturna perched up for
the night, seeking out her next
evening prey, swoops down for
the bite.
Doesn't mind flirting with
danger for she's the one
definitely in control, for
this far from coy little
night owl, will thrust out
her wings in aerial splendor,
if she may be as so bold.
