Description
A truely beautiful owl with a round-head, eyes yellow, bill black. Feet heavily feathered. They lack a true facial disk. A distinctive white owl with varying degrees of dark brown spotting and barring. Adult males are almost pure white, although they have up to three tail bands. Adult females are distinctly barred throughout, although white tail dominates. Females usually have from four to six tail bands. Immatures are very heavily barred throughout, and dark spotting may codominate or dominate the overall plumage. Intensity of dark spotting varies with the sex of the immatures; females are the darkest.
