Description

Snowy Owls are a beautiful species and a special animal to see for birders and non-birders alike.  In 2013-2014 there was an irruptive year that taught us much about this species.  And in 2020, they are being seen along the Canada-U.S. border and in urban environments for all to enjoy and appreciate.
