現(xiàn)場(chǎng)攝像機(jī)提供了雪鸮罕見(jiàn)的一瞥

A new live web cam offers a rare glimpse of an active snowy owl nest.

一個(gè)新的實(shí)時(shí)網(wǎng)絡(luò)攝像頭提供了一個(gè)活躍的雪鸮巢難得的一瞥。

The camera is located in Barrow, Alaska, and is part of the 2019 Snowy Owl Project. This is the 29th year of the project, which studies the owls from June through September.

該相機(jī)位于阿拉斯加巴羅，是2019年雪鸮計(jì)劃的一部分。這是該項(xiàng)目的第29年，從6月到9月研究貓頭鷹。

The cam is a joint effort by explore.org and the Owl Research Institute. This is only the second time they've been able to offer a live cam of this majestic raptor.

cam是由explore.org和Owl研究所聯(lián)合開(kāi)發(fā)的。這是他們第二次為這只威嚴(yán)的猛禽提供實(shí)時(shí)攝像機(jī)。

Snowy owls became more popular with the release of the "Harry Potter" books and films, but there's so much to know about them beyond their beauty.

隨著《哈利波特》系列書(shū)籍和電影的上映，雪鸮變得越來(lái)越受歡迎，但除了它們的美麗之外，還有很多關(guān)于雪鸮的知識(shí)。

This particular nest is fun to watch because of the time of the year. Not only are the owls nesting and have babies, but the almost 24-hour daylight in the Arctic means there is no wrong time to check in on the owls.

這個(gè)特別的鳥(niǎo)巢很有趣，因?yàn)槊磕甑倪@個(gè)時(shí)候貓頭鷹不僅筑巢生子，而且北極24小時(shí)的日照，意味著觀察貓頭鷹幾乎沒(méi)有錯(cuò)誤的時(shí)間。

It's common for snowy owls to build their nests on the ground, and even prefer having them on a hill of sorts to keep an eye on potential predators.

雪鸮在地面筑巢是很常見(jiàn)的，甚至更喜歡把它們放在各種各樣的山上，以監(jiān)視潛在的掠食者。

The male owl typically spends most of his time hunting or waiting nearby to defend the nest if necessary.

通常情況下，雄性貓頭鷹的大部分時(shí)間都是在附近狩獵或等待，以便在必要時(shí)保衛(wèi)巢穴。

The chicks in this nest are between 1 and 2 weeks old at the moment. They'll grow up quickly and leave the nest though.

這個(gè)窩里的雛鳥(niǎo)現(xiàn)在1到2周大。它們會(huì)很快長(zhǎng)大，離開(kāi)巢穴。
