My Snowy Owl Journey

Changde Wu    2017-03-05


Snowy Owl is kind of owls that loved by almost by every one. They spend most of times in the tundras of Arctic regions, and only a few arrive in the northern US regions during the winter. Snowy are large owl, their wing span are up to 5 feet. Males are almost pure white, while females have more flecks of black plumage. Unlike other owls, snowy owls can hunt 24 hours a day almost they rest most of the time. Their diets are largely rodent, but also hunt for other mammals and water fowls.

This article was initiated as a gallery of the snowy owls photos and videos after the new year of 2017. I will continuously update it as I have more material to pick.

4K Short Videos about Snowy Owls

Stationary photos are not enough to show the life of snowy owls. So I shot some short videos in 4K quality to document the snowy owls I saw. I have uploaded most of them to Youtube to share with general public. You can search these videos with my name "Changde Wu". The follow links are not full list.
