High in the snow laden
arctic tundra;
Mother snowy owl, with twelve trailing chicks.
The snowy owl being the largest of all owls.
Golden eyes and glistening black beaks.
Snowy owl mother meandering across the
tundra with her brood.
The warmth of northern sunshine exposing shadows
of Nature's lifestyle upon the ice crystals embedded
in the sparkling snow.
A family of snowy owl
shadows, as mother owl
frantically searches for mice and lemmings, which
may have burrowed into the tufts of bunch grass
enhancing the arctic tundra.
This northern exposed family of snowy owl chicks
scurry to mother for food and inspire her to take her clutch
of newly feathered young beneath her downy breast.
Resting in mother's warmth of nourishing love.
Twilight flickers. Vibrant multicolored northern lights
begin a dancing game of tag, as the heavens take note of
the dance of flickering lights.
In the wilderness serenity of the northernmost
arctic tundra.
Snowy owl family at rest, in the absolute glory of
the high arctic tundra.
