I found a really similar one here and broad shouldered is the closest thing I can find so far.

But I also see owls having fuzzy feathers as body feathers, just not in the wing and tail? Like this-

I don't think it could be one! Owls normally have gray at the bottom of the feather where the fuzz is at
