Weighing a Torpedowl

This owlet meets the category of "torpedowl" being wrapped in a tube of plain white towel and head facing outwards from the cylinder. She is placed in a plastic bowl the colour of warm pastel blue, atop a set of scales. Her face is a little sunk inside the tube, and in shadow which accentuates the yellow of her eyes. Her mouth is slightly open and tongue is visible. Being juvenile there's an extra level of fluffiness to her feathers.
