Snowy Owl
"Snowy Owls come south in unpredictable invasions known as ‘irruptions.’ It’s mostly about food and babies, but we have a lot to learn about this phenomenon."
(https://www.projectsnowstorm.org/what-is-an-irruption/)
Snowy Owl irruptions occur approximately every four years, and large numbers last came to our Great Lakes in 2013 and 2014. (http://www.bioone.org/doi/pdf/10.1656/045.024.s712?download=true)
