Arctic Snowy Owls!

PAUL BANNICK / SPECIAL TO THE SEATTLE TIMES

I scoured the internet this morning for some glorious story showing the beauty and true goodness of man kind but alas today it did not exist. So instead I will post about the glorious beauty of the animal kingdom.

In Washington this winter birders have noticed a large number of Arctic snowy owls. It is rare that we have this many in our area. Generally the owls live the Arctic, Alaska, Siberia and other ice cold climates. But this winter they will be here with us.
They like open areas like beaches and airports (seems like it would be loud?). They feed on small animals which makes me fear for my chickens, although seeing an owl swoop down and take a chicken would be a pretty amazing sight to see.
