*** About Snowy Owls: The snowy owl, a powerful bird famed for its beauty and prowess, thrives in the Arctic's harsh winter landscape. Adapted perfectly to its cold environment through its thick, insulating feathers and keen hunting skills, the snowy owl preys mainly on lemmings and can consume up to a dozen a day. Distinct for their nearly all-white plumage, these birds of prey are amongst the largest North American owl species, exhibiting an impressive wingspan that adds to their striking appearance. Notable for their nomadic lifestyle, snowy owls often migrate southward during harsh winters, showing up in areas far from their usual habitats. Their presence in art and folklore symbolizes wisdom and endurance, capturing the imagination of many cultures around the globe.
