The Snowy Owl is one of our most spectacular weathervanes. To capture the white color which makes these birds so distinctive, we’ve added gold leaf to mimic the bird’s markings. The photo featured here shows the weathervane designed transformed into a wall sculpture. Because each sculpture is individually crafted we can personalize it in a myriad of different ways. The snowy owl shows up particularly well against a backdrop of dark trees.
The Snowy Owl weather vane featured in this photo has glass eyes which were custom made for this weather vane. They give it a very life like appearance!
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, Great White Owl or Harfang.
This yellow-eyed, black billed white bird is easily recognizable. It is 52–71 centimetres (20–28 in) long with a 125–150 centimetres (49–59 in) wingspan. Also, these birds can weigh anywhere from 1.6–3 kilograms (3.5–6.6 lb). The adult male is virtually pure white, but females and young birds have some dark scalloping; the young are heavily barred, and dark spotting may even predominate. Its thick plumage, heavily-feathered taloned feet, and coloration render the Snowy Owl well-adapted for life north of the Arctic Circle.
