Owl is an anthropomorphic owl who first appeared in Disney’s animated short Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. Owl’s character is based on the stereotype of the “wise old owl”, though his “wisdom” is sometimes questionable.

In the original television ad, a questioning boy (voiced by Buddy Foster) proposes the question to a cow (voiced by Frank Nelson), a fox (voiced by Paul Frees), a turtle (voiced by Ralph James) and an owl (voiced by Paul Winchell). Each one of the first three animals tells the kid to ask someone else, explaining that they would bite a Tootsie Pop every time they lick one. Eventually, he asks the owl, appearing wise, who offers to investigate. He starts licking the orange Tootsie Pop, but bites into it after only three licks. The child walks away, saying to himself, “If there’s anything I can’t stand, it’s a smart owl.” The commercial ends the same way, with various flavored Tootsie Pops unwrapped and being “licked away” until being crunched in the center with Herschel Bernardi asking, “How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie pop? The world may never know.”
Wow, nothing about Bubo? My man got the eye from the witches, saved Perseus, and helped him defeat the Kraken. He’s a hero. Mr. Owl just ate some candy.

Vote here for Bubo
Bubo was forged by Hephaestus and sent by Athena to aid Perseus in his quest to save the princess Andromeda in the original 1981 film.
After losing Athena’s helmet in Calibos’ swamp, Zeus orders Athena to give Perseus her owl, Bubo, as a replacement. She refuses, but agrees to have Hephaestus build a clockwork copy of Bubo to aid Perseus on his quest. Bubo helps him overcome numerous enemies, but not without a little fumbling on his part…

Hoot hoot!
The most superb owl of them all.
Hootsifer!!
I like this owl personally:
I had the audiobook for that, and the EEEEYYEEEEK from the narrator was perfect
Hedwig for sure, she died for Harry’s sins of being the dumbest fucker at Hogwarts
Where my Ookpik homies at?
OMG, I just realized I’m subbed to Kayaking and Birding communities. I was groomed by a Snowy Owl, must be a rather Superbowl at that.

Not even the owl from Zelda?
Owl from Winnie the Pooh vs Hedwig from Harry Potter
Vote here for Hedwig
Hedwig (d. 27 July 1997) was Harry Potter’s pet female snowy owl. Hedwig was an eleventh birthday gift from Rubeus Hagrid to Harry. Hagrid purchased her at the Eeylops Owl Emporium.
In addition to delivering mail, the typical use owls are put to, Hedwig was also a close companion to Harry. She remained one of his closest friends right up to her death during the Battle of the Seven Potters at the height of the Second Wizarding War.
The owl from Blade Runner:
Where are The Guardians?
Everyone here ignoring the Grand Duke of Owls from Rock-a-Doodle. He may not have been the assistant to a great wizard, or part of a certain Woods, he is nonetheless iconic to my childhood.
