Owls are some of the most majestic, beautiful creatures on earth. They also have the incredible power to emote, or seemingly emote: they sometimes look huffy, happy, angry, inquisitive, perplexed, and so much more.

As we say goodbye to Winter and hail the arrival of Spring (with wide open arms, thank you very much) let’s say goodbye to the cold with 25 majestic photographs of owls in the snow. They, at least, don’t seem to mind the cold.
