Hunting Owl, Worcester Cathedral.

Taken from the medieval carvings C 1380. found upon the Misericords and supporters from within the choir stalls of Worcester Cathedral. This beautiful carving is of an owl, one of England’s great birds of prays. Looking closely one can see that the bird is wearing a headdress most associated with that of a domesticated bird used for the purpose of hunting.
