During the cold-winter months, Christoph spends his days along the Atlantic coast following the movements of a few snowy owls during their winter migration to our New England beaches. They fly quite a distance from their home on the frozen tundra in the high Arctic and he goes on location to capture these rare and intimate photographs of the snowy owls taken in their winter habitat. Several of the snowy owl photos in this captivating presentation have earned national and international awards.
