So can owls smell?
@Animalogic can you do a video on difference between alligator and caiman? I tried to to tell others they are different animals. They don't believe me.

Please make a video about shrikes.
Sad Snowy Owl news: Their population in North America has dropped dramatically over the last decade - by around 64%. Now, scientists are closely monitoring the breeding patterns not just of snowy owls, but also of lemmings. As the birds’ main prey, the local rodent population has a huge effect on owl numbers.
Oh I just read about this, indeed sad news!! Interesting on the lemmings research, as it DOES make sense that scientists know what's happening with their primary food source. Such a tremendous creature 🦉 So, sooo special 🙏
I love the faces this bird makes. The drama, the sass, the cuteness, I want one!!

Imagine looking at some beautiful facet of nature and wondering how much it costs… or what it would be like to own it…

This is one of my favorite episodes. The Snowy Owl has been my favorite flying bird ever since I first learned about it on a nature documentary when I was younger. The fact that it can hunt and fly at near silent is such an impressive adaptation. Great content as always, Animalogic.
All owls can fly silently! They are all also SUPER soft. Except the sharp bits, of course. I personally prefer the sooty owl, eurasian eagle owl and some of the owls native to where I live over the snowy owl, but that's just because owls are all so goddamn cool. Snowy owls are definitely the most stunning looks wise out of all the owls

The snowy was the first owl I saw outside of a book or screen. They are my favorite owl, and one of my fave birds overall.

Don’t lie it was Harry Potter lol or maybe that’s just me.
It's amazing how many groups of animals have adapted to an arctic lifestyle.
I think it’s amazing that not more types of animals could stand the cold to be honest with you. Millions of years is a looooong time, and only like 30ish species survive in the cold. I just guessed that number , I could be off by a lot.
Evolution is pretty cool
@@justincraig398 over 5500 species live in the artic, and thats counting only the modern ones.
Well yeah, compared to the temperature of their environment, the threat of parasites is much more prominent than the cold.
@@justincraig398 because it wasn't millions of years and there's no scientific basis for that beyond the speculation of "well anything could happen during that time period"
Snowy owls like most owl species have asymmetrical ears. One ear is slightly higher than the other which allows them even greater hearing than normal. This tiny difference in vertical hearing is called interaural timing difference. It lets owls pinpoint their preys position from above. We also have interaural timing difference but ours only works horizontally, usually from ground level.
*The snowy owl, member of the last surviving lineage of predatory dinosaurs, terror to all lemmings, screams like a banshee when annoyed:* Stands still to be petted.

I can relate to the snowy owl’s need for others to not intrude on their space😂 thank you for another great episode!

Saw a Snowy in my neighborhood in southern Arizona a few winters ago, then the local news covered it cuz there were more of 'em. Gorgeous thing.

Steve Kroschel is a legend, I've watched the doco on his interaction with Wolverines, amongst other beasts. Inspirational, and a great educator. World needs more like him, actually we all need to be like him

Owls are so beautiful! 🦉

That unique, dappled brown and white pattern that they have. There's nothing else quite like it and it's just gorgeous.

The snowy atop the Tim Horton's sign at 13:37 may be the most Canadian thing I've ever seen in my life.

It's so interesting to see how animals use unimaginable resources to survive. Our crew filmed the lifecycle of caterpillars, and it's so interesting to see that they digest themselves during the metamorphosis.
I saw a snow owl back in 1987 when I was living in Oregon near the High Desert, it flew a few feet right over me and the wingspan was impressive at nearly 6 feet! Just a beautiful bird to watch fly.
I have seen them on the beach in the winter where I live. They look sooo cute sitting in the sand, chilling. 😍
The snowy looks adorable perched. But a threatening sight for unsuspecting prey!
Emmanuel Alejandro, look at bird bath
A video on pigeons, European starlings, or house sparrows would be interesting since they have such a close affinity with man-made environments and have been introduced far beyond their natural range
And are not protected under MBTA if I’m correct
I grew up in northern Manitoba and I remember seeing these beautiful birds when I was a child.

Danielle - Is the bird safe to touch?
Steve the Expert - I hope so.
Hahaha! Best thing ever.
Love this one! Snowy Owls are so beautiful. I think I'd like to see an episode talking about Ospreys next. Please. XD
Yes! Love the osprey
@@jocelynsmyth6604 Me too. I work at a school, and a family of Ospreys actually made their nest on a pole overlooking the playground. It's quite the sight seeing these birds so close to us.
@@FrankenXANA nice! That's pretty cool. Do you know if they are protected where you live? I'm in Ontario, Canada, and if they nest somewhere, you can't remove it - after the decimation of their population in the 90s, it gives them a little more protection
FrankenXANA, look at bird bath
@@BirdBath1 Just did. I saw some robins and phoebes washing themselves before flying off for the winter.
My mom's favorite animal is the snowy owl, they're beautiful creatures.
I didn't know that they nested on the ground and that the males are all white.
That means that the snowy owl portrayed as the female Hedwig in the Harry Potter films is a male owl.
Yep! Well, sort of. She wasn't played by a single owl, she was played by SEVEN different owls! Their names are Gizmo, Kasper, Oops, Swoops, Oh Oh, Elmo and Bandit. I like Oh Oh. It's a good name.

I love how passionate you ladies are about animals :) you do such a great job presenting interesting information in an easy to access way :)

I didn't know they were so big, that's nuts.
I was fortunate enough to photograph a snowy owl that had decided to visit Cambridge, MD last year due to an irruption. It took me several tries over a couple weeks because the owl would just hang out on a pier on a bench and wouldn’t move even an inch. One day, after standing still for about 6 hours with my eye glued to the camera, a Great Blue Heron landed about 6 ft from the owl which I guess was enough for it to take off for about 30 seconds and let me take about 400 shots. It was one of the most glorious moments in my wildlife photography so far. I hope to one day photograph them on their Arctic turf.
I saw a burrowing owl near a runway one time at an airport, but not a snowy owl. My dad used to see them on certain beaches, which was a great spot to take photos, but I haven't seen one yet.
Haa!
i love it when such a beautiful animal turns out to be something of a badass. Owls are already pretty amazing, adapting to live in such harsh climates is just another layer of Awesomeness.
😄👍

@@BirdBath1 i have a bird bath at home, there's only a young Blue Jay that shows up splashing around.... 🤦♂️ You're talking about how scrawny owls look when they get real wet aren't you? They look like some kind of creepy small alien or something when the feathers aren't fluffy
😄👍
@@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269 read my name
Probably the cutest bird of prey =D
wilgarcia1, look at bird bath
Fun fact, you can tell what time of day an owl hunts by the color of its eyes. Daytime hunters have yellow eyes, nocturnal hunters have black eyes, but dusk hunters have orange eyes
those snowy owl calls were some of the most aggressively Canadian things I've seen

The segment with Oupick the Owl really enriched this already amazing video. Very nice job, indeed.
Birds of prey almost always look cool.

I love that interaction between the presentors around the globe! it makes the video so alive and interactive and way more entertaining. I love this channel so much it is so cool and well made!
Long time subscriber here!!! This show just gets better and better!!! Amazing production value everyone well done!!!
Yea Its Me Matt, look at bird bath
These are truly beautiful birds. Mybe you should make an episode on birds of paraside. I know there are many species, but their courtship displays are simply mesmerising!
EOM Guel, look at bird bath
The absolute coolest (no pun intended) bird of prey alive!
Justin Archibald, look at bird bath
Yeah, and that little yellow mouse was just conveniently sitting there on the snow...
Good to know, especially after seeing these guys at the golf course I work at. It’s nice to know how to move them safely from cart paths, also nice Omnipod!
Honestly, this is underrated. Love to see more!
These snowy owls are so beautiful and camera shy. 😳🥺😍
Snowy owls are the most beautiful birds of prey to probably ever exist. And yet they were only trying to adapt and not enter a contest.
Save them now. We don't want them to go.
There is nothing more beautiful than the snowy owl.
you need to expand your tastes in things
"Do you like lemmings?
lol the end clip with Danielle and the dude in Alaska, very cute, looks like fun!

I had a pleasure of photographing a snowy owl who made a surprise visit to Bayonne NJ!! 😁 2 years ago
My boy Yukisada.
Certain birds look up into storm-fall, hail, rain, snow; it takes advantage of streamlined profile deflecting the falling precipitation and direction of wind-flow as the feathers are designed: but under the feathers against the skin, any rising heat in this position is directed up the full length of the body and neck like a chimney of feathers; using as much body heat as it generates to flow up beneath the insulating feathers, keeping as cohesively warm as weather conditions allow.
Absolutely lovely channel. Crazy that it’s free. Thank you! 🤓
Oh my gosh, my most favorite animal ever! I have tattoos of owls. My biggest tat is of a snowy owl flying down to grab a rodent standing on a dead log. Beautiful.
I've seen three snowy owls here in the NYC area. Twice, I've seen them wintering along the south shore of Long Island. Once, I saw one in a tree in the middle of Queens. That might have been during the irruption mentioned in the video. Beautiful birds.
Endless supply of pigeons and rats!
@@eaterdrinker000 pigeons, yes. Which is why we have lots of hawks and falcons. Rats? Not in that neighborhood.

Magpies! Are they really thieves? Are they the best dressed bird, even outclassing the penguin, who missed the hankerchief? Please explore!

"Lemmingade" haha love it.
Goes well with some delicious mice cream.
Owls are lovely critters.
Maybe a species of corvid next?
Did they just make an entire Snowy Owl video without making a Harry Potter reference? That's some real restraint.
Right?! I was thinking, omg did Harry line Hedwig’s cage with lemmings?
Almost thought I was going to make it through the comment section without seeing a Harry Potter reference
@@abradyv
Imagine Hedwid bringing back lemmings as an offering and Harry having to kindly get rid of them without freaking out the other students and teachers.
Ethan Dollarhide, look at bird bath
@@ZombieBarioth lol I think people at Hogworts would be use to it. They might even have a special bin in the Great Hall for owl “presents”. It would be hilarious to imagine Harry having to dispose of lemmings at the Dursleys.
I would like to see an episode about newly discovered species of animals. Like those tiny chameleons or those adorable octopus

What an amazing animal Animalogic!!

Thank you so much for this very well done video!! A good friend of mine loves wildlife, and works at a nearby small airport. Every winter, snowy owls visit and stay at his airport during the coldest months before returning north. He has many great photo shots of them! I love owls!! Can you do one on saw-whet owls, if you haven’t already? Thank you 🦉
Snowy owls certainly are gorgeous! Thank you for this video. :D
Could you talk about red-footed falcons?

Can we get a moment of silence for the mice sacrificed for these sick hunting shots 🙏
everyone's favorite joke starts that way:
A snowy owl and a flamingo go into a spa
This is a snowy owl. I will call her Snowy da Claw-Birb!
5:39 The face of “mess around and find out.”
I love those birds😍🤍🦉
AWSOME video. Amazing. Owls are so cool. I think owls are one of the most beautiful birds. They certainly have a lot of personality. Wink Wink
Lemmings. Keep them fed. Keep them warm.
When your prey is versatile.
I really enjoyed this video! Thoroughly enjoyed!!
I love owls of all feathers and this was a special treat! Thank you Animalogic!!

"Snowy owls aren't particular about what they eat."
yeah, me too.
We see these every winter in southern Saskatchewan
Everyone is fond of Owls.
Except for mice and voles
I just 🤍 White Snowy Owls🦉.
AWWWWW and FUNNY! God bless you for making these videos!
It's difficult to see what's happening in the world.. the deception that is just, every friggen place.. but, God bless you for sharing the beauty in this place!!! MUCH appreciated!!
"Except for they're alive...and owls" lmao
Hey in the Caribbean Puerto Rico the native owl are brown small but fearless we call them 🦉 lechuza
I did get to see one flying over my town in Kansas one winter about 30 years ago, haven't seen one again. It was quite a sight to see one flying about twenty feet over head.
I really like the duo of presentation, that's a good dynamic !
We had fun mixing it up! Glad you enjoyed!
May I suggest the Galapagos tortoise for an upcoming video? They’re amazing and I was surprised that Animalogic hasn’t already done a video on them. Definitely an oversight that needs rectifying.
It was so nice to see Daniel again! Great video!
Snow owls are pretty and intimidating at the same time.
Great documentary
Pretty Cool, Thankyou.Enjoyed.
beautiful creature
hoot! Luv it! pls make another snowy owl vid again.
Owls are my love. Please talk about vultures.
Kashif Shehzad, look at bird bath
Yeh so much of understanding
Birds of prey useably have a smell to scent out prey from the sky. Turkey vultures have a excellent smell range to smell out carcasses.
Great Horned Owls definitely don't have a good sense of smell, though. Hence why they'll gladly eat skunks
