Owls have been immortalized throughout the ages through art, literature, religion and culture.
A Picture Book of Snowy Owls captures their majestic beauty in its most natural form. The winter life and habits of the Snowy Owl are displayed through a series of beautiful portait and action images. The images capture some of the most important behaviours of the Snowy including hunting, soaring over the wintery fields, dealing with intruders and basking in the spring sun.
Each image is titled to reflect the actions portrayed and is accompanied by a short verse that evolks a complementary affective response. The Foreword was written by the World Renowned Birder, Bruce Di Labio. Finally, the Snowy Owls' winter and summer range along with its size and weight, is provided.
This eBook is dedicated to improving awareness of raptors in general and to the appreciation and conservation of Snowy Owls in particular.

He has published extensively on business planning, performance measurement, governance, and IT best practices. As a photographer for the last 2 decades, Bryan has captured wondrous images all over the world - of people, city, land and seascapes and animals in their natural environments. His passion for photography grew more intense in 2005 when he saw his first Great Grey Owl. It triggered a curiosity, a need to know more and the need to capture the delights of these wondrous creatures. Using a 35mm digital SLR camera, Bryan spends hours in the field tracking, finding and photographing these amazing animals – often in bitterly cold conditions. While his images provide a professional record of these subjects, more importantly they allow you a few minutes to relax and escape. You can imagine yourself resting or soaring where the pressures of everyday living are lost to the imagery and poetry of the moment.
