PBS Original NATURE Documentary “Magic of the Snowy Owl”<br>
<br>
</i></div>
<br>
</b>BREWSTER, MA The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in Brewster
continues its Nature Screen monthly film series with PBS’ original NATURE
documentary; <i>Magic of the Snowy Owl<br>
</i><b>Wednesdays through Sundays, December 7 ~ December 30, 2016
11am-2pm*<br>
<br>
</b> A team of intrepid filmmakers provides an intimate look at the
snowy owl, a bird made popular by Harry Potter’s faithful companion
Hedwig. Though “snowies” naturally stand out for their beauty,
intelligence and charm, in their eerie, bleak arctic home, it is their
determination and survival skills that are truly magical. Throughout the
long months of the Arctic winter, life is difficult, if not impossible,
for all but the toughest and most experienced of animals. Snowy owls are
built for the challenge, their every sense and skill honed to take on
their frozen world. And when the brief Arctic summer approaches, bringing
light back to the tundra, they embark upon an even more daunting
challenge than keeping themselves alive. They breed and attempt to raise
young in one of the harshest environments on the planet. Once summer
arrives, they will have just 82 days of sunlight to successfully raise a
family of helpless owlets until they are ready and able to fly.<br>
<br>
