The snow bunting (Plectrophenax nivalis) is a passerine bird in the family Calcariidae. It is an Arctic specialist, with a circumpolar Arctic breeding range throughout the northern hemisphere. There are small isolated populations on a few high mountain tops south of the Arctic region, including the Cairngorms in central Scotland and the Saint Elias Mountains on the southern Alaska-Yukon border, as well as the Cape Breton Highlands. The snow bunting is the most northerly recorded passerine in the world.

James,

How on earth did you find this creature! Is it on a roof?

They outlived the greatest extinction event in history!

It’s sobering to think that these are the only surviving dinosaurs!

There were three of them that were hanging out on this structure. Part of it floats and is anchored to the shore,

so it drifts around in the wind a bit.
