Snowy Owl

Larisa Snitko Mr. Scinta Animal Research May 19, 2015 Snowy Owl Hi, I’m strigiform! Actually, that’s my scientific name for snowy owl, so I’m actually Larisa the Owl! I know you want to know ALL about me, so I’ll gladly fill you in on snowy owls! My phylum name is chordate. My mom could be at least 6.5 pounds and my dad could also be at least 5.5 pounds. My parents could be 25-27 inches tall. The older I get my fur will get whiter and I will have some black dots on me but it all will disappear. My habitat where I like to live is in the tundra, meadows, marshes and dunes during nesting season. The food that I will eat when I grow up with be mice, other rodents, fox, small birds, insects, and even rabbits. But since I am small now, I only eat worms and berries. When I am older I will have to use my claws to grab my food and bring it back to my nest. Males and females owls come together in spring and summer to form breeding pairs and establish summer territories.…

Owls, hawks, and eagles are types of raptors, animals which have hooked beaks and sharp claws, and are therefore adapted for seizing prey animals. Hawks and eagles differ from owls in that they eat their prey animals by tearing them into small pieces, picking out the flesh and avoiding most of the bone material which they might eat. The relatively small amount of indigestible bone and fur that remain will be compacted by their stomach muscles into a pellet similar to the owl’s. Do you think an…

Antonio, like an oscillating pendulum, was moving constantly between fixed points, and Ultima grabbed hold of him and put him to rest, in the middle of the two points. This idea is represented by this image, with the scorching sun of the wild llano juxtaposed with the soft grass cascaded by the luminescence of the moon; the Luna and the Marez. But now in between these two opposites does not stand Ultima. It is Antonio between the Luna and the Marez; he holds his eyes closed with a peaceful…
