About "Snowy owl (Bubo scandiacus)"

About the artwork

The snowy owl (Bubo scandiacus) is a bird of the owl family (Strigidae).The body length of the snowy owl is 55 to 70 cm and the weight 1 to 2.5 kg. They can reach an average age of 20 years. The snowy owl has a mainly white plumage with black spots. Males and older specimens are whiter than the others. The white reflects in the sun, a feature the birds would use to make their presence known in their territory. The face, throat and breast are the whitest and are most often placed in the sun. The whitest birds may also take advantage of the albedo of snow, possibly selecting lower, less visible perches than spotted specimens. Snowy owls nest in a pit on the ground which they line with feathers, moss and leaves. Thanks to their good camouflage color they are hardly noticed during breeding. Incubation takes 27 to 34 days. Chicks leave the nest regularly after 25 days. They are not able to fly yet, but will do so after about two months. Chicks reach adulthood at the age of two. Clutch size varies between three and fourteen eggs, depending on the food supply. In lemming-rich years, the number of eggs is greatest. In harsh winters it is sometimes observed in the Netherlands or Belgium as a wanderer. But its distribution area is the extreme north of Asia, Europe and North America. There, the predominantly white snowy owl lives and nests on the tundra.
