Snowy Owls lead nomadic lives and travel vast distances from year to year searching for productive feeding areas. Some years, most recently in the winter of 2011/2012, conditions cause them to come south in great numbers.
Get an intimate look at these white owls from the north through video and photographs captured by the Cornell Lab's, Gerrit Vyn.
From your friends at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, here is an inspiring video as we start a new year. Happy 2012.

If you are a part on the Nest Watcher program for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology check out the newsletter:
While much of this year’s nesting activities have concluded, the work of the NestWatcher still isn’t finished. Many of you have spent the summer diligently recording your nest observations in notebooks and on paper datasheets and now is the time to transfer this information into the NestWatch database.
