This Winter Wildlife Celebration, keep warm with a VINS Barred Owl (Strix varia) hooded sweatshirt!

Barred owls are native to the Eastern U.S. but their range is expanding in Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest.  They prefer wooded habitat, usually near water, and their barred and mottled grey and brown marking blend perfectly with the forest. Their “who cooks for you, who cooks for you all” call is a regular night sound where they live.
