The Journeys of Snowy Owls
This arrived in an email I received from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, my favorite bird resource on the web, and I thought I would share. I never knew that snowy owls were nomads.

Liam? I don't know much about owls, but I do know that owls in Oregon are the types of owls that don't wander. They set up permanent homes in established territories. In case you might be interested, I will leave a link about owls from the Oregon Dept of Fish & Wildlife. Barn owls and Snowy Owls are very beautiful. And formidable birds of prey, I think. I also think of them as being terribly shy, when they aren't shy at all. Plus (bonus), they're cuter than eagles. http://www.dfw.state.or.us/species/birds/owls.asp

Here's my favorite owl, late at night. Very darling, I'd say.

It's too bad humans aren't more like owls, a lot of owls do a much better job of parenting, pair bonding and looking after one another than many humans ever will.

Another favorite raptor (Peregrine Falcon)
Here's an press release about peregrine falcons living in my hometown metro area. At one time, there was an peregrine falcon couple nesting in an huge tree on my work campus. Often times on my lunch hour, one could see them soaring above the towers on my work campus. I even saw them teaching their baby how to fly. http://www.pdxmonthly.com/articles/2...joy-and-terror |

The kakapo (Strigops habroptila) is one of the most distinct parrots in the world, as it is flightless and nocturnal. The bird is gigantic and heavy, weighing about 8 pounds. The bird resides in New Zealand and it listed as critically endangered. A long period of isolation in the islands of New Zealand caused the bird to develop a high level of adaptation, and it is especially vulnerable to extinction. Deforestation and introduction of predators have caused the numbers of the species to decrease rapidly. The bird is on IUCN red list as threatened species and the status as critically endangered. |
