Upwards of 17 million commercial flights<\/a> ferry passengers across U.S. airspace each year. (It\u2019s more than twice that, in total, worldwide.) Those hundreds of thousands of vessels share the sky with winged things that have been around way, way<\/em> longer than airliners, but it\u2019s not always an easy relationship. Through the work of people like Norman Smith at Boston\u2019s primary international terminal, we\u2019re learning more every day about a remarkable species and their evolving ways of life.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Snowy Owls of Logan Airport<\/a>\u201d is a short documentary about Smith\u2019s extraordinary work managing unexpected avian residents. Created by Anna Miller<\/a>, who also runs The Animalia Podcast<\/a><\/em>, the film highlights the unique migration patterns of the largest owls in North America and why they flock from the Arctic to such an unlikely destination every winter.<\/p>\n \n
