Description
This is a up close photograph of a Snowy Owl. I took this picture of the Snowy Owl on Plum Island at Parker River Wildlife Sanctuary. The Snowy Owl is a large white Owl with a rounded head, yellow eyes and black bill and is very beautiful. This is a male Snowy Owl. You can see how beautiful and bright his yellow eye is.
Even though this is s Snowy Owl he has been called other names. Some other names for the Snowy Owl are Snow Owl, Arctic Owl, Great White Owl, Ghost Owl, Ermine Owl, Tundra Ghost, Ookpik, Scandinavian Nightbird, White Terror of the North, and Highland Tundra Owl. The Snowy Owl is the official bird of Quebec, Canada.
Most hunting is done in the wait and sit method as they watch for their food. They are active from dawn to dusk.
