How would I go about modelling wings for an owl character? How do I make a smooth transition from "closed wings" to "open wings"?

You can do it the hard way with morph on Maya Blendshape or Blender keyshape. Or the acceptable version with bones and realize how birds hate their wings limitations because of evolution.

pic related surely uses model swapping.
you either need a very articulate skeleton or a simple skeleton with corrective blend shapes. depends so much on of this is a flap made of polies or if its a bunch of 3d modelled feathers and down.

Make a big blob shaped smear object that flashes up when the wing opens if you don't want to animate the whole process.

model swapping. you need to have 3 stages of the wings (close, half-opened, fully opened)

I am a tourist but interested in browsing 3DCG.
Don't you make a skeleton inside the model with lines in this situation that are set to have limitations and then looking at real bird videos to make it fly
