Text Appearing Before Image:
GREAT GRAY OWL (Strix nebulosa) In spite of an ever-increasing army of individuals expressing an interest in birds and the lure of the natural world, and in spite of the continued diminution of wilderness, the great gray owl remains a bird of mystery, a ghostly apparition of the deep forest. The great gray owl, like another inhabitant of the wilderness, the grizzly bear, and more than any other bird, typifies the mystique of wilderness. The most striking of all owls, the great gray owl is nearly two feet long and has a wingspread of five feet. Prominent concentric circles on facial discs are its most distinctive markings. The great gray owl flies with slow and measured wingbeats, float- ing noiselessly through the forest in search of its prey of mice, voles, chipmunks, and other small mammals. Great gray owls are rare inhabi- tants of the dense forests and adjacent meadows of Yellowstone and Grand Teton.
