Absolutely beautiful birds!!!

It's amazing how much white they have in their feathers. I guess that's to help them blend in on snow branches and fields. It sounds like the arrivals have been a great boon for the local economy. I hope researchers can learn more about the owls from this, but safely for both people and birds.
