The long-eared owl on the picture hides behind the tree trunk, only showing a close-up of the head, the two clusters of long feathers erecting like ears, and the pair of vigorous round eyes of the tiger and tiger, which not only show the alertness of waiting for predation, but also reveal a bit of naughtiness.
