The Sleeping World: Starry Nights with a Snowy Owl

Wind down by escaping into nature. Part soundscape and part bedtime story, The Sleeping World is an intimate journey through ecologies around the world. Against the white expanse of the Arctic tundra, a snowy owl is hardly visible as he pauses to listen for the rustling of small prey. While most Arctic birds migrate south for the winter, this owl can survive through the endless polar nights. In this episode, we follow a snowy owl as he searches for food in the dark, soaring past the footprints of polar bears, howling huskies, and snow foxes that call this wintry world home. This is the world in its natural state, defined by seasons, routines, and cycles. By the time this snowy owl is ready to let his golden eyes close under the starry sky, you’ll be ready to close your eyes too.
