This collage shows the Snowy Owl, one of the most striking and powerful birds of the far north.
• ???? Appearance: Snowy Owls are covered in thick white feathers, perfect for blending into the icy Arctic tundra. Males tend to be almost pure white, while females and younger owls have more dark barring.
• ❄️ Habitat: They live in the Arctic but sometimes migrate south in large numbers during food shortages — an event called an irruption.
• ???? Vision & Hunting: Their piercing yellow eyes see incredibly well in both day and night. Unlike many other owls, Snowy Owls often hunt during the daylight hours of the Arctic summer.
• ???? Diet: They feed mainly on lemmings and other small mammals, but can also take birds. A single owl can eat 1,600 lemmings in a year!
• ???? Symbolism: In many cultures, snowy owls symbolize wisdom, purity, and mystery.
