Qigiq, a Snowy Owl and Raptor-in-Residence here at the Alaska Raptor Center, helps us educate the public about Snowy Owls and the dangers they face in the wild. Did you know Snowy Owl young may travel remarkably far from their birthplace? From a single Snowy Owl nest on Victoria Island in the Canadian Arctic, one young bird went to Hudson Bay, one to southeastern Ontario, and one to the far eastern Russian coast! | Alaska Raptor Center

Tootsie, a Northern Saw-whet Owl and Raptor-in-Residence here at the Alaska Raptor Center, has found a nice spot for her nap. Northern Saw-whet Owls are nocturnal and seldom seen. Their high-pitched too-too-too call can be heard in evergreen mountain forests from January through May. The Northern Saw-whet Owl was named for giving a call that sounds like a saw being sharpened on a whetting stone. | Alaska Raptor Center
