There’s a new act that was recently signed into law by President Trump and which took effect on January 1st, 2020.

One of the most spectacular birds I’ve ever seen is the Snowy Owl, a large white bird with a wingspan of almost five feet. With a worldwide population estimated at only 200,000, some of these owls reside all year in their breeding grounds high in the Arctic tundra.
