Owl in the Snow
This week we release once again all about Snowy Owls. With their striking white plumage and piercing yellow eyes, snowy owls are one of the most captivating birds in the avian world. Found predominantly in the Arctic tundra, these magnificent creatures are well-adapted to their icy habitat. Their feathers are not just beautiful but also serve as insulation, allowing them to survive extreme cold.
Snowy owls are currently vulnerable. Climate change poses a significant threat to their Arctic home, altering the availability of prey like lemmings and impacting their breeding success. Additionally, habitat destruction and human disturbance further endanger these majestic birds.
