Owl

In everyday life, this tireless bird loves cleanliness, cooking, traditional medicine, and sports above all else. She can spend hours brewing medicinal infusions, sealing jam jars, compiling encyclopedias of useful tips, and doing morning exercises. Above all, Sovunya dislikes disorder, laziness, dampness, ignoring her medical prescriptions, or violating safety regulations. She is terribly upset by others' negligence, as well as situations where someone refuses to eat her signature soup. Sovunya expresses her concern, strict control, or fleeting fatigue with characteristic sayings, among which the most common are her famous "Oh-ho-ho-ho...," the commanding "Okay, everyone wash your hands immediately!", the cheerful "Physical education-hello!" and the edifying "The main thing is health!"

Sovunya is a classic sanguine personality type—strong-willed, pragmatic, and at times quite strict—who abhors chaos and irresponsibility. She possesses vast life experience, unwavering common sense, and a well-developed maternal instinct, which often leads her to be overprotective of the younger Smeshariki. Sovunya can be grumpy and unyielding, especially when it comes to daily routines, hygiene, or taking bitter medications. However, behind this stern exterior lies an infinitely kind, sensitive, and caring heart: she is ready to rush to the aid of a sick person in any weather, feed the entire valley a delicious meal, and listen to other people's secrets without further ado.

Sovunya is a wise, thrifty, and incredibly energetic purple owl who serves as the chief doctor, cook, and keeper of order in Romashkova Valley. Her appearance perfectly matches her practical and athletic lifestyle: she always wears a playful knitted cap with a pom-pom, and small reading glasses are often visible on her beak. Despite her advanced age, Sovunya is in excellent physical condition, has an enviable bearing, and moves around the valley with astonishing speed, most often on her beloved skis or roller skates.
