Here are my owls:

Somebody made a request for a very small owl. I tried to shrink it: 

        _  .
     * (_)   *
   ..   *   ..
   *  ___  . . *
   \/{o,o}     .
   / /)  )* _/_ *
  /,--"-"---  .
  ejm    ..   
   .  *

       _ 
    * (_)
  ..   * 
    *___
  \/{o,o}
  / /)  )
  ,--"-"-
  ejm   .
   .  *

Somebody else objected to shrinking an owl, saying that owls don't
hoover around trees like hummingbirds. Knowing full well that it was a
typo, nevertheless, I couldn't help myself:

     ...    *    .   _  .
  *  .  *     .   * (_)   *
    .      |*  ..   *   ..  
     .  * \|  *      . . *
  *   \/   |/ \/ *.   .   .
    _\_\   |  /      * _/_ *  
        \ \| /,--------  .. 
  _-----`  |(,__,__/__/_ .  
         \ ||      ..  ___ 
          ||| .       {o,o}___ *
          |||       /V(  (vv'
    ejm   |||      /\: " "
    , -=-~' .-^-__/_/
       ..,;;`#%/__)

Oh my, that Hoover is a little large for the owl. (See how it has to fly
in order to maneuver the machine?) Rather than shrink the Hoover, I'll
enlarge the owl:


     ...    *    .   _  .

    .      |*  ..   *   ..

    _\_\   |  /      * _/_ *  
        \ \| /,--------  ..

         \ ||      ..
