Traditionally the owl represents wisdom and knowledge, dating back to Greek Antiquity and Biblical times.   

Their prodigious, unblinking eyesight, sharp beak, and nocturnal nature helps the owl’s popularity for being brought to life by small tattoo.  

While sometimes seen as an omen of death, small owl body art runs the gamut from grim darkness, to photo realism, and even cartoon cuteness in design.
