The snowy owl. A beautiful creature. They've been in the news often lately. It seems they're moving south. At first it was the northern U.S. Now they've spotted them in Pennsylvania, Virginia and this last week they had one make headlines in Washington D.C. It had been hit by a metro bus. It [she] managed to survive.

There are varying theories about why the owls are traveling south. Food, water [unlikely but who knows] and then there's my theory. Magnetic change. Yep. I think the magnetic pole wobble and predicted change has thrown them off. Maybe it's also one of the reasons for the beaching of so many marine mammals? Maybe.
