Mossy Rockowl (Muscus Petrosus Noctua) also known as the three-eyed rock, was about 5 inches tall with the female being a bit smaller than the male. They were nocturnal creatures that were incapable of flight, so their best defense against predators was to curl up into a ball that resembled a rock covered in moss, hence their name. These cute little critters actually made it all the way inside the ark, but unfortunately, they got too close to the elephants. One day when the Noah boys were cleaning out the dung, they accidentally got shoveled out a porthole. Used 37 colors and it took me way too long to make the feathers look the way they do. I don't want to try feathers again for a while *Updated* Added a background and changed the color count...
