Snowy Owl vs. Peregrine Falcon

Not once - but a "Twice in a Lifetime " Experience for you both. My birding companion and I, whom do regular, if not daily counts at a recovering creek in our town, were at our spot for ten minutes and saw a Red-Tailed Hawk perched nearby. We took photos and used the zoom function but did not get closer. But other visitors, unaware of this full-grown male hawk, walked their dog or strolled with their baby and the hawk was unimpressed by anyone whom passed by, garnering our admiration.

[@GaisSacredCreations]

Snowy owls are diurnal. They spend their summers on the Arctic Tundra when the sun does not set for six months and in winter make their way more south for food. I often see them during winter (South Eastern Canada) and they only hunt during the day and roost at night in the tall pine trees. They love perching at the top of the wooden electric poles where they have a great view of the land for any potential prey like wild turkeys, hares, rabbits, voles and the occasional racoon if it's small.

[@-NoneOfYourBusiness]

[@jordalf3878]

[@terrispoonemore4983]

The owls are very interesting.so amazing to watch.

[@HgHg-yp6ft]

Owls could wreck havoc on the other raptors nests during the night hours given a chance{proximity}. That might explain falcons behavior, they would not want any owls in their territory.

[@Turtleback8024]

True that.

[@troo_6656]

In any other owl species, yes. But Snowy Owl isn't nocternal, they hunt at any hour and the falcon just defends itself in general because it's awake

[@denisdupuis6531]

Snowy Owl feed in the day as well, during the summer the Artic is daylight 7/24. Its more like see my big wings and body I am bigger and more powerful your just faster.

[@prettyanddepressed4350]

Denis Dupuis but they're more active and more defensive at night

[@denisdupuis6531]

Population Their local numbers are high when the lemming population they prey on is high and lower when the lemming population is low. Range In North America, snowy owls are found during the breeding season from the western Aleutians in Alaska to northeastern Manitoba (Churchill), northern Quebec and northern Labrador in Canada. In the winter, they can regularly be found in the northern United States. Sporadically they can be found as far south as central California as well as in Texas and Florida. Behavior Unlike most other owl species, snowy owls hunt mainly in the daytime. Snowy owls are highly nomadic and their movements are tied to the abundance of their primary prey species, lemmings. They are known to aggressively defend their nests and will attack those that disturb their nests.

[@prettyanddepressed4350]

Oh

[@mustyfan1584]

Gifted rose Snowy owls are extremely powerful birds, and will even attack wolves that come to close to their ground nests. I don't think daytime phased the powerful bird too much, but it was a funny joke nonetheless :)

[@carlallen2473]

The owl at the end is just like "OHH FUCK are they gone....I think I'm goo- OHH FUCK"

We've had Peregrine Falcons raise young in the pipe chases at our plant in Kingsport TN, There is nothing like walking down the process and having the juveniles meet you in the alley ways.

There are snowy owls in NJ!?! I seriously had no clue you could find them there, I'd always assumed they lived much farther north, maybe northern Canada, Alaska, etc They are my favorite bird & I would be so happy if I actually saw one one day!

[@donaldvanvliet9039]

I think that was a rare sighting of an owl who got lost and strayed too far south. They do live much farther north.

[@jessewru6425]

When their food source of lemmings is too low they choose to move south temporarily for better food.

Miss Peregrine vs Hedwig

[@JWY]

Not a snow owl but about that size I watched a barn owl in the woods near my place. After it took note of me, over 100 feet away, it decided to fly away landing on a branch at least 500 feet off - when it landed and grabbed the branch there I heard it distinctly - sounding exactly like an axe biting into hard wood swung full force.

[@TheTmat007]

I wonder which is stronger

[@WSOJ3]

Owls some times attack other birds nests at night to steal chicks and eggs. That's probably why those 2 falcons were so alert, they probably have a nest near by with eggs or babies in.

[@greenleader4517]

awesome video ,congrats

[@boofdfast]

For the person who said they like owls and raptors...Owls ARE raptors! Raptors are birds of prey, or birds who "grasp" their prey by the use of talons. Raptors include eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, vultures, and kites.

It is funny how people are saying just wait till the night, you'll be sorry when the sun goes down blah blah blah, the thing is Snowy Owls are most active at dawn and dusk and during the day otherwise known as Crepuscular. As for the Peregrine side of things the female will stay with the chicks 24/7 with the male providing the meals.

Yesterday's "Boston Globe" had a story about the increased number of Snowy Owls in the marshy area around Logan International Airport. The Massachusetts Port Authority takes great pains to capture and relocate the birds to prevent air traffic accidents. In contrast, New York had incurred public outrage by shooting the owls, and as a result, has begun to adopt Boston's owl control methods.
