I've settled on a short-eared owl (Asio Flammeus) to serve as the mascot
and icon for Owltide. This is not a settled and final decision, but
rather a branding that's good enough for now.

To create the mascot I sketched some owls that I have saved to
/assets/mascot/owl-sketch.png and then selected one I liked.  Going
clockwise from the top right the sketches were based on the reference
photos [1], [2], and [3] found by searching for "owl" on Wikimedia
Commons.  I then lightly refined it to work as a small icon.

To avoid confusing terms that only make sense for software the artworks
are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0
License.  This has a similar spirit to the AGPL and ensures that should
improvements be made upon them they can be incorporated in the project.
