is a great place to see Snowy Owls (Nyctea scandica). They feed
on lemming, voles, and small birds but lemmings make up the
bulk of their diet and so the snowy population fluctuates with
the lemming populations. They are large powerful birds, but
are wary of humans so it is a rare occasion to see one in a
setting like this. Snowy owls start out with a grayish plumage
and then as they mature, they become more white throughout. |
