Description I thought I was done with this piece yesterday, but then Swish and I discovered that there are a lot more Disney owls than we had initially thought.

Can you name them all? Or at least the movies they appear in. Most of them are nameless.

In case you can't name them or have just given up, here's the list made up for your convenience by my sister Swish!

No Name ~ Skeleton Dance ~ August 22, 1929
Judge Owl ~ Who Killed Cock Robin? ~ June 26, 1935
No Name ~ The Old Mill ~ November 5, 1937
No Name ~ Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ~ December 21, 1937
Friend Owl ~ Bambi ~ August 13, 1942
Wise Old Owl ~ So Dear To My Heart ~ November 29, 1948
No Name ~ The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad ~ October 5, 1949
Accordion Owl ~ Alice in Wonderland ~ July 26, 1951
Professor Owl ~ Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom ~ November 10, 1953
No Name ~ Sleeping Beauty ~ January 29, 1959
Archimedes ~ The Sword in the Stone ~ December 25, 1963
Owl ~ The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ~ February 4, 1966
Grandma and Grandpa Owl ~ Robin Hood ~ November 8, 1973
Ollie Owl ~ America Sings ~ June 29, 1974
Deacon Owl ~ The Rescuers ~ June 22, 1977
Big Mama ~ The Fox and the Hound ~ July 10, 1981
Professor Barnaby Owl ~ Splash Mountain ~ July 17, 1989
No Name ~ Beauty and the Beast ~ November 13, 1991
No Names ~ Pocahontas ~ June 16, 1995
Ibid~ Hercules ~ June 27, 1997

No Name ~ Enchanted ~ November 21, 2007

Owl ~ Tangled ~ April 14, 2017

Owlbert ~ the Owl House ~ January 10, 2020

No Name ~ DuckTales ~ October 19, 2020


I will not draw the Naturalist Owl, he is pretty much the same as the Wise Old Owl.

Please ask before using this artwork and if you do use it please be sure to give me credit. This took a long time to research and draw.

Edit (5/25/14): Swish found another one! Judge Owl from the Silly Symphony "Who Killed Cock Robin?"


Edit (9/21/18): Added the aptly named "Owl" from the Tangled series


Edit (8/11/20): A wonderful comment helped point out this newest owl for me. I chose Owlbert over Hooty for obvious reasons.


Edit (10/23/20): This owl only appears for a second or two in the Ducktales episode "Let's Get Dangerous" but I had to include him! (I should probably add Zan Owlson too)

Thanks! Friend Owl just thinks Snow's owl has derpy eyes. Archimedes thinks he's better then Aurora's owl, hence the reason he is looking down on him. Not true of course except it does seem like Archimedes has the most fans.

It's quite interesting about this, since most owls by Disney are related, at least according to the Walt Disney Story at the Magic Kingdom

I've read that. I really like that old picture of the owl family tree, although I've only seen it here [link] , I'm not sure they have it at MK anymore. There have been quite a few new owls since that picture was made.

Clang55 In reply to MightyMorphinPower4 [2012-04-29 21:18:38 +0000 UTC]

Great job recognizing them!

Barnaby Owl appears right after that scene. He's the owl that shows you your picture on the video screen right before you get off the ride. His design changes depending on the park, but the one included above is based upon his portrait as it appears at the counter where you can buy your pictures for the ride. If it wasn't for my sister's love of the character (and all obscure Disney things) I probably would have forgotten about him.

I'm surprised you recognize the wise old owl, he was very difficult to research. Oh, and thanks for the comment! I love talking to people about this kind of stuff.

Awesome, I've never seen anything like this before, and I admit there are quite a few there that I didn't know of...8 of them I recognized right away.

Awesome work, props to you for taking the time to research into this all.

Thank you! A long time ago one of the Disney parks I believe had a mural depicting the Disney Owl family tree which included most of the owl up to the Winnie the Pooh Owl. I figured it was about time for an update, and it was a blast of a project.
