Today I am going to do things a bit different. I am going to teach you about something today. What I have chose is the Snowy Owl. Because I just got to watch some of the Harry Potter movies, and Harry has an owl named Hedwig, and he is a Snowy Owl!! So here is something teaching you about them!!

The Snowy Owl is found in the northern circumpolar regions (Canada and Northern United States during the winter), where it makes its summer home. However, it is a nomadic (traveling) bird, it has been known to be found at even more northerly latitudes when it is finding a mate (summer). Their habitat is grasslands. They are a large, beautiful bird with a wingspan of up to 4 1/2 feet! They are mostly white but have some brown bans in them. Their food source is small mammals like mice and such.

The Snowy Owl nests on the ground. Snowy Owl pairs fiercely defend their nests against predators, even wolves. They lay 5 to 14 eggs, which are laid one at a time, about every other day over the course of several days. Hatching takes place about five weeks after laying, and the pure white young are cared for by both parents. 

Here are some photos of them!
