Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: It is the heaviest North American owl, and one of the largest in overall size. As with most owls, the females are slightly larger. Weight: female average 2.3 kg, male average 1.8 kg. Height: 52 to 70 cm. Wingspan: 125 to 145 cm. They have large, round heads, black beaks, yellow eyes, and no visible ear-tufts. The talons are 25 to 35 mm long.
The feathers of adult males may be almost pure white in colour. Adult females are mostly white, their feathers being barred with dark brown. First-year birds of both sexes are darkly marked. Immature males resemble adult females. Immature females are heavily barred, appearing almost grey from a distance. |
