The Celtic land of the dead is called Moonland (or Emania), and probably looks somthing like this (and it makes sense that owls live there, because they are very hard to find...)

For #ArtAdventCalendar day 12 we have Owl In Snow. Quite fitting really as I'm wondering if I dare venture out 😏. I fear falling over and not being able to get up due to dodgy knees 😏.
Take care and be safe.🦉

THE OWL SERVICE was born when Alan Garner found plates the design of which could be seen as either owls or flowers. It draws on the MABINOGION; Celtic wizard Gwydion creates a woman out of flowers, Blodeuedd, who becomes a flower-faced owl #MythologyMonday #OwlishMonday

"And now I can hear
the sweet owl's lullaby
I swear I've heard
the voice of the night"
These are lyrics from my song "The Voice of the Night" and also an old watercolor I painted for it, from my first album Ancient Shadows #owlishmonday

I think it is the most realistic thing to think that harpies are related to owls.

“If you would always live with us... then you must first go into the woods and hear what the birds say. When you shall have lurked, listened, and learned what the sparrow, magpie, and owl say, then come back into our arms" (Heine)
