Snowy Owl-Florida  JACKSONVILLE, Fla A snowy owl has made a rare
appearance in Florida. Park services specialist Peter Maholland
says bird watchers have been flocking to northeast Florida to
catch a glimpse of the white bird. Snowy Owls are familiar to
children as Harry Potter's pet. They are the largest North
American owl, and they're typically found in Canada and the
Arctic. Experts say snowy owls fly farther south when their
population spikes or their food source becomes scarce. An
invasion of snowy owls has been reported this winter across the
Midwest, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states.  powered by Disqus
