A striking example of American wildlife artistry, this limited edition “Evening Tracker” Northern Saw-whet Owl was designed by renowned wildlife artist Ken White for Big Sky Carvers and is individually numbered 14 of 1,250.
Expertly hand-carved and hand-painted from solid wood, this sculpture captures the alert, watchful posture of the Northern Saw-whet Owl (Aegolius acadicus) — a small North American nocturnal raptor known for its rounded facial disk and intense forward gaze. The realistic glass inset eyes create a lifelike presence that immediately draws attention, elevating this piece beyond decorative owl figurine into true collectible wildlife art.
Mounted on a sculpted hardwood display base with engraved brass plaque identifying the title, artist, and edition number, this discontinued Ken White design represents the craftsmanship and rustic lodge aesthetic that made Big Sky Carvers highly sought after among collectors of:
Hand carved owl sculptures
Limited edition wildlife art
Rustic lodge décor
Cabin and mountain home interiors
Western art collectibles
Nature and bird figurines
Montana wildlife carvings
The feather carving remains crisp and dimensional, with layered detailing across the wings and facial disk. Subtle tonal shading and hand-painted coloration enhance realism while preserving the warmth of natural wood.
Early edition numbers such as 14/1250 are especially desirable among collectors.
This piece displays beautifully in a study, office, library, cabin, lodge, or curated wildlife collection.
Big Sky Carvers wildlife sculptures by Ken White are increasingly scarce on the secondary market, particularly early-numbered limited editions. The combination of hand-carved wood construction, glass eyes, and species-specific realism distinguishes this piece from mass-produced resin owl figurines.
