“Desert Blossom” Storyline

I feel a certain affection for the Desert Pygmy Owl. It has to be one of the cutest owls in the world and is native to Arizona. In this sculpture, "Desert Blossom”, I have imagined the Sonoran Desert adorned in full glory of spring blooms made even more stunning with the presence of the Pygmy Owl.
