Summary
[edit]DescriptionSnowy Owl (16425669651).jpg |
The largest of all owls in North America, this female or juvenile was spotted perching on a utility pole in Logan County, North Dakota. Unlike other owls, snowy owls are diurnal (active during the day). They are found in the U.S. only during winter months and they spend the breeding season north in the Arctic. They commonly sit on the ground on a small rise, or on fenceposts, bales, or other perches where they can keep a sharp, yellow eye and ear out for mice, voles, or other prey. Mature males are mostly white in color, but juveniles and females have dark brown or black barring, such as this one. Photo Credit: Krista Lundgren/USFWS |
