Just saw my first Snowy Owl today at Little Talbot Island state park near Jacksonville, FL. Only the 3rd confirmed sighting in Florida. A great life bird to add and right in my backyard!
Absolutely. I can see why so many people are enamored by this bird. It truly is unique and not only does it have the mystical lure of owls in general, that old, wise character, but that brilliant white color and the dark barring with those piercing yellow eyes and fury feet that hide those sharp talons for weapons, add to that allure. Not to mention the incredible hunting prowess these magnificent raptors possess.
I loved the commentary on pack ice foraging in the dark of the Arctic winter. It opened up a new facet of wonder for me about these great birds. I hope one day to see one in person. Thank you!
Fantastic video with excellent commentary. I will use this at school (I am a teacher). We are seeing Snowy Owls here in Middletown, RI this year (Late Nov. early Dec.) at Satchuest Point Wildlife Refuge.
What a video! This certainly is a majestic bird and one that I get excited to see every time it comes south. The last time I saw one was ~1995 along the NJ coast.
Awesome !! I live on Vancouver Island, and watching the news, saw the report on the "Owl Invasion " in Ladner , on the mainland. Why didn't they stop here for a visit ?? The only one I've ever seen in the wild, was in Manitowadge Ontario, when I lived there in '70-'71. Beautiful , and awe inspiring experience !!
Such a magnificent raptor. When I host my Snowy Owl Photography Workshops in Ontario Canada guests have the opportunity to Snowy Owl Wildlife Models. They are simply amazing photographed in their natural environments and it saves stressing these owls in nature.
Really nice work on this video. These are easily the most beautiful of all raptors - and a terrifying sight for the poor Lemming that makes up most of its normal diet. Excellent photography - congratulations!!
Such a beautiful animal, we have an Animal Ambassador named Yeti, he's a snowy owl who meets with kids in schools and at community events to inspire them to take action to protect biodiversity. Snowy owls are so astoundingly beautiful that everyone that meets Yeti can't help but be awed by the wonders of nature.
Beautiful. I spotted one (my first ever :) in my field at woods edge, in SW New Hampshire, this past Monday, Jan. 30, 2012. I could hardly believe my eyes! Then, late that night I heard the "whistle" call, repeated for several minutes.
Well, for those in the southern portions of the United States, we could have bird feeders, and make a small habitat for SnowOwl packs. This will give a nice natural attraction, and possibly help in a small amount to prevent these birds from going instinct.
I live on Vancouver Island, apparently there were sightings, alas, I missed their appearance. I did see one when I lived in northern Ontario, but that was some 40 yrs. ago. I am thirsty for another visitation. Wonderful video. Thank you.
We have an immature male snowy owl in Jasper County, Mo., in far southwest Missouri who has been here for about a month. I've seen him and photographed him three times. I'd video him, but I don't have nearly the equipment this person has. Beautiful job.
They're such beautiful animals, probably the best looking birds on the planet I reckon. I remember the delightful sight the first time I saw them for real at the raptors center in Vermont, 1998.
A snowy owl was just down the road often on the same powerpole….watching the grassy field for food…..it was there for two years.. but havent seen it since..this was around 2010.’its 2023 now but I have moved since then so maybe its still hanging around! The snowy owl was in west michigan about five miles from Lake Michigan in muskegon county.
Heard about the sudden burst of the snowy owl population from the Lancaster bird club. It was a good lemming season last year. I'm looking forward to seeing one!
i saw one in new york city, on the top edge of a highrise building. some seagulls were harassing it. he casually reached out and grabbed one, and ate it. about 15 years ago. it was bigger than i had thought from books. five years earlier, i saw one on a distant fencepost in a field in hopewell, NJ. it never moved. both sightings were late january.
Amazing video! We saw them in Smithville Lake, MO. However, an article in the newspaper explained these owls are starving. The four snowy owls that were killed in KS and MO by cars and train were very low in weight. Is there a way to help them and feed them?
I so love owls but these snowy owls are true gems of nature!
Thank you for the close up look.... beautiful.

Wow, you are a priviliged guy...snowy owl...in Florida.

Thank you for this wonderful video and educating us about the mysterious and captivating , snowy owl.
What a magnificent creature . So impressive and powerful !
I just could not help but to snicker when I saw some of their faces since I've seen similar looks from humans before their morning coffee. XD
AetherDreamSeeker Eh? Humans do not look drop dead gorgeous and stunning in the morning, afternoon and evening, except for a few.
Amazingly clear video and photos of the snowy owl. A very beautiful bird of prey.
Remarkable. Thanks to the dedicated ornithologists at the Cornell Lab!

I was looking in to joining this collage when I'm a bit older, I love these documentarys about raptors. They're just so beautiful.
Magnificent, stunning and fabulous birds! The cats of the skies.
Gorgeous photography, thanks!

GoMiGman straight up
Amazing video and one can learn a lot about these beautiful snowy owls even just by watching this video! Love it!

Breathtaking birds ❤️
Classic Video of one of my favourite birds. Snowy Owl. rekindles memories of the last one I saw in Mayo ...
Tres tres belle video.Quelle patience? Magnifiques gros plans.Proficiat et merci.

I just saw one yesterday in Fifty Lakes Minnesota. By far the most beautiful bird I've ever seen in my life!!
We have had several in our area (SW IN) this winter. It has been such fun seeing them up close like your video. Fabulous Vid.

These owks are Beautiful!
Wonderfully done. Thank you for passing this alone.
Great Snowy Owl video. Thanks!
Really nice work on this video. These are easily the most beautiful of all raptors - and a terrifying sight for the poor Lemming that makes up most of its normal diet.
Excellent photography - congratulations!!
Most human-like eyes of any bird, I would think.
OWLS.........the most beautiful, unique birds in the world!
Very Nice. We were actually privileged enough to have one visit us this year in Central Indiana.
Such a beautiful animal, we have an Animal Ambassador named Yeti, he's a snowy owl who meets with kids in schools and at community events to inspire them to take action to protect biodiversity.

Omg that’s so beautiful can u put a picture ????
Fantastic photography. Love to see one of these birds in the wild.
Beautiful! This was great to see! Heard they have been spotted at the coast here in NH recently wish we could see one!!!
Just exquisite! saw only one in my life in CT. I am melting with love.
Amazingly beautiful. Hoping for more sightings this winter season!

Wow, I honestly didn't know that this has happened before. Those feathers are so soft, you have no idea what's coming from behind.
Great photography and information in this video! Thank you.
What an amazing video and photographic review of the snowy owl. Thank you for the insights!
Absolutely beautiful! Fantastic video and photo's of an amazing bird.
What a glorious animal.

If an hour video was made of this animal by this Lab I will buy it.
So beautiful, what a joy to see them in the wild.
Nicely done, Gerrit!

Ever since the fourth grade, I made an article on them for my class and loved them every since.

So beautiful. Nature is one significant thing in our world.
the snowy owls fly to the great lakes state during the winter months.
Heard about the sudden burst of the snowy owl population from the Lancaster bird club. It was a good lemming season last year. I'm looking forward to seeing one!

How do these birds avoid overheating in warmer climes, especially when they're so well-insulated?
