8 OWL PHOTO ALBUM!
9 Why We Made This Google Doc We made this Google Doc because we wanted to inform you of the facts about the owls we chose. Sarah and Erin hope you will now be able to identify the Snowy, Barn, Spotted, and Elf Owls with our helpful facts/ descriptions and assisting pictures!
10 Fun Facts Snowy Owl FF: a Snowy Owl named Gizmo played the role of Hedwig, Harry Potter's owl in the HP films.
