Matrioshka owl family

Bought from SavageArtworks on Etsy, these five owls are the Wizards' Couriers.

These nesting doll owls are based on the description of some of the owls in the Harry Potter books.

The tallest one is Errol, the Weasleys' owl, a very clumsy Great Grey Owl.
Hedwig is Harry's owl. it is a large, beautiful female Snowy Owl. In the movie, they have actually used a male owl, which has less dark markings.
The third one is Malfoy's owl, a large Eurasian Eagle Owl, very serious and little intimidating.
The forth one is Percy's screech owl, mentioned briefly in The prisoner of Azkaban.
The smallest owl is Ron's Pigwidgeon. Described only as a tiny, twittering bird, yet very hyperactive and expressive, guesses are that it is either a Scoops owl (the one in the set) or a Little owl.

They have all been hand painted in acrylics and then coated with a protective finish.
