A bit about a Snowy Owl - The Snowy Owl (Bubo scandiacus) is a large owl of the typical owl family Strigidae. The Snowy Owl was first classified in 1758 by Carolus Linnaeus, the Swedish naturalist who developed binomial nomenclature to classify and organize plants and animals. The bird is also known in North America as the Arctic Owl or the Great White Owl. Until recently, it was regarded as the sole member of a distinct genus, as Nyctea scandiaca, but mtDNA cytochrome b sequence data (Olsen et al. 2002) shows that it is very closely related to the horned owls in the genus Bubo. The Snowy Owl is the official bird of Quebec. Now thats the facts now the reality our Owl Snowdrop is called Snowdrop because everytime he tries to fly he drops. When he does manage to fly around he drops something else which is why we keep umbrellas by the doors at collage. Owl go twit a woo ours is just a twit.
