Plush Owl Hand Puppet

This puppet is a real head-turner! Besides being able to make his head turn 360 degrees, you can animate this Snowy Owl's feather-soft wings to create a real flap in your neck of the woods! The soft, lovable owl measures 10 inches tall. Wingspread is 21 inches wide. Ages 3 and up.

The snowy owl is found from the north of Greenland to the south shores of Hudson Bay and along the northern perimeters of Alaska and Canada, and also in the tundra areas of Siberia and Scandinavian. The males may be almost completely white, but the females usually have more extensive black markings on their head, wings and body.

The chief food of snowy owls is lemmings, although they also feed on various other small animals such as squirrels, mice, and rabbits. They are skilled in catching fish, lying in wait on the banks of lakes or rivers to seize one in their claws. Occasionally, birds are caught in the air and eaten. the large, nocturnal eyes are deceptive, as snowy owls usually hunt during the day.
