Owl Wild Wood Tea Towel by Perkins & Morley
£14.99Owl Wild Wood Tea Towel by Perkins & Morley
The Owl Wild Wood Tea Towel by Perkins & Morley shows an owl in a gorgeous design by Jill Perkins, set against a navy background.
Not actually a native to the UK, the Little Owl was introduced in the 19th century. It nests in tree cavities and though it hunts by night, can often be seen in the daytime, perched up high and basking in sunshine! When it does hunt, it will do so from a perch rather than on the wing, and its most recognisable trait is the bobbing which occurs before it pounces on prey. Sadly Little Owl numbers have declined dramatically and there are only an estimated 6,000 pairs now in the UK.
An ideal house-warming gift for young and old alike.
Dimensions: 76cm x 48cm • 100% unbleached Cotton • Machine Washable (30° max) • Do not Tumble Dry • Proudly made in North Yorkshire, Britain

Long Eared Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd
£12.95The Long Eared Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd depicts the owl in exquisite water colour.
Names for the feather tufts which resemble mammalian ears, the Long Eared Owl is a UK native. It raises its “ear” tufts when alarmed, which in turn may alarm any creature which spies it! With beautiful orange eyes and dark brown feathers, the bird is excellently camouflaged particularly when in woodland, and is therefore harder to spot than other resident species of owls.
On the reverse of the mug is a delicate line drawing of a baby Long Eared Owlet in flight (or free fall!), and inside the rim a tiny feather.
The Long Eared Owl mug by Madeleine Floyd makes an ideal gift for birthdays, house-warming and other occasions. And for perfect owl-awareness why not pair it with an Owls Apron or Tea Towel by the same designer?
Capacity 300ml • Recommended hand wash only • High quality china • Dimensions: height 9cm x width 8.5cm
Tawny Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd
£12.95The Tawny Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd depicts the owl in exquisite water colour.
The owl’s dark eyes indicate that he hunts by night. A bit of an omnivore, the Tawny Owl will eat a range of small mammals and rodents as well as small birds, frogs, fish, insects and worms. Their familiar call – Twit Twoo – is actually the combined conversation of a male and a female. If you hear a truncated call, it may well be a youngster, establishing his own territory for the first time!
Although there are an estimated 50,000 pairs of Tawny Owls in the UK, they are now on the Amber list due to concerns about long term decline.
On the reverse of the mug is a delicate line drawing of the Tawny Owl in flight, and inside the rim a tiny feather.

Short Eared Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd
£12.95The Short Eared Owl Mug by Madeleine Floyd depicts the owl in exquisite water colour.
The owl’s yellow eyes indicate that, unusually, he is a daytime hunter. Easiest to spot during winter, he’s a similar size to the more ubiquitous Tawny Owl, but with longer wings, and can be found on moorland and salt marshes. Resident numbers are boosted by migrants arriving to over-winter, from Iceland, Russia and Scandinavia. Short Eared Owl numbers have declined so dramatically that they are now on the Amber conservation list – there are only an estimated 2,000 pairs now in the UK.
On the reverse of the mug is a delicate line drawing of the owl going in for the kill, and inside the rim a tiny feather.
