The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents
Nature Screen
PBS Original NATURE Documentary “Magic of the Snowy Owl”


BREWSTER, MA ­The Cape Cod Museum of Natural 
History in Brewster continues its Nature Screen 
monthly film series with PBS’ original NATURE 
documentary; Magic of the Snowy Owl
Wednesdays through Sundays, December 7 ~ December 30, 2016 11am-2pm*

  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.

* Showings are continuous every 50 minutes from 11am-2pm.

Join us every month for compelling, educational 
and visually stunning nature documentaries that 
inspire appreciation, curiosity and stewardship 
of our natural world and its inhabitants.

Free with Museum Admission / Museum Hours are Wed.-Sun. 11am – 3pm
For more information please call: 508-896-3867, ext. 133
