About the artwork

Snowy owls are majestic and fascinating creatures. With their beautiful white plumage, they seem to have flown straight out of a fairy tale book. Known for their adaptability to harsh weather conditions and their unique hunting techniques, the most striking feature of snowy owls is, of course, their white plumage. This makes them perfectly camouflaged in their natural habitat, which is often covered in snow. But did you know that the plumage of male snowy owls can sometimes also have black spots? This gives them an even more mysterious look. Another impressive aspect of snowy owls is their size. They are among the largest owl species in the world, with a wingspan of more than a metre. Their powerful talons and strong wings enable them to glide silently through the air and catch prey. Although snowy owls exude a certain mystique and beauty, they also face challenges. Changes in their natural habitat, climate change and disturbance from human activities can threaten their populations. It is important to be aware of the vulnerability of these beautiful creatures and take steps to protect them. In short, snowy owls are enchanting and imposing birds that remind us of the magic of winter. Their white plumage, impressive size and unique hunting behaviour make them truly special. Let us work to preserve this iconic species for future generations to enjoy.
