Silent Sentinel: Bruce Graham’s Great Grey Owl Portrait from the Signature Collection

In this commanding wildlife portrait, Bruce Graham captures a Great Grey Owl perched on a mossy branch, its concentric facial rings and piercing yellow eyes giving it an unmistakable presence.

The image conveys both mystery and majesty, making it a standout addition to Bruce’s Signature Collection — a celebration of raptors and their silent power.
