Snow Owl, Bubo scandiacus. The Snowy Owl used for this painting was originally caught at an airport in Ontario in 2014 as a sub-adult. It was banded and relocated. In 2018, he was found in a field in Indiana with a fracture of his right wing and possible eye trauma. He was taken to a local rehabilitation facility to heal. Unfortunately, his injuries were such that he would not be able to return to the wild. He was then transferred to an educational facility to share his beauty and conservation message with others.
