The poems “A Barred Owl” and “The History Teacher” were both written around the year 2000 by Richard Wilbur and Billy Collins. In past poems, these two poets loved throwing in hidden themes and figurative language throughout each of their poems. These two men, though they have never met, have many similarities when it comes to their moral outlook. At the same time, Wilbur and Collins have different ideas for how their beliefs are put into action. With this in mind, the poems “A Barred Owl” and “The History Teacher” use a central theme of fabricating reality, but the motives behind each the lies are of opposite intent and will wage different outcomes in the future.

Today spotted owls are particularly rare in their traditional habitat range of British Columbia, the Cascade Mountains of northern Washington, and the Coast Ranges of southwest Washington and northwest Oregon. However, a large and virtually isolated population still exists on the Olympic peninsula. Estimates suggest that the amount of suitable habitat available to spotted owls has been reduced by over 60 percent in the last 190 years. The main threat to the spotted owl is habitat loss as well as competition as well as being edged out of their territory by the barred owl. Listing of the northern spotted owl as threatened and the designation of critical habitat space are helping to reduce habitat loss on Federal lands.
The imagery of the first poem greatly contrasts from the overall tone. In “A Barred Owl,” Richard Wilbur describes an owl frightening a child and waking her from her slumber. Wilbur sets the scene with dark imagery: “The warping night air brought the boom/ Of an owl’s voice into her darkened

They have a great vision and can see in the dark night, however they also are associated with an omen of death. We first met with Owl-Eyes in Gatsby’s library.
Kate Chopin’s novel, The Awakening opens with a scene of two birds, emphasizing that the motif of birds later within the novel will play an important part with setting the constant metaphor they bring. Throughout the whole novel the motif of birds is a metaphor for the Victorian women during that period -- caged birds serve as reminders of Edna’s entrapment and the entrapment of Victorian women in general. Edna makes many attempts to escape her cage (husband, children, and society), but her efforts only take her into other cages, such as the pigeon house. Edna views this new home as a sign of her independence, but the pigeon house represents her inability to remove herself from her former life, due to the move being just “two steps away” (122).
