The snowy owl is covered in snow-white feathers.
This large species of owl is mainly found in Arctic
tundra areas. The snowy owl can rotate its head up
to 270 degrees giving it an extremely wide range
of vision.While the male is almost purely white, the
female's feathers are streaked with shades of black
or brown. The female is also bigger than the male
meaning that, unlike other owls, the snowy owl's
sex can be easily distinguished. Unlike most other
owls, the snowy owl is active during daylight hours.
Summer in the Arctic circle features nights of
"midnight sun" , and the snowy owl, living in open
areas such as tundras, grasslands, wetlands, or
rocky areas, must hunt for prey from an elevated
point with maximum vision of the area. For this
reason, snowy owls are often very active during the
day, even though hunting is commonly done in the
mornings or evening. Their prey consists mostly of
small rodents, but they occasionally feed on other
birds too.
This papercraft is about one half the size of a real
snowy owl.
