Augury Owl

Description

The Magic 2011 set, identified by the code M11, features the Augury Owl as card number 45. This Common rarity creature is presented in a foil finish, adding a distinct visual texture to the base checklist. The card represents a Blue mana source, requiring a mana cost of {1}{U} to cast. As a Creature — Bird, it possesses a Power and Toughness of 1/1. Its strategic value lies in its enter-the-battlefield ability: when this creature enters, you may scry 3. This mechanic allows you to look at the top three cards of your library, then arrange them in any order, placing any number on the bottom and the rest on top. The artwork for this card is by Jim Nelson, capturing the essence of the bird in flight. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often target specific card numbers to complete their set collections, and this foil version offers a premium alternative to the non-foil print. The interaction between the low mana cost and the card draw utility makes it a notable inclusion for players interested in control or tempo strategies within the game's mechanics.
