  Know Your Meme
  
  The original “O RLY?” Snowy Owl image macro used a photo taken by nature photographer John White, which was subsequently posted to a Usenet newsgroup named alt.binaries.pictures.animals on February 17th, 2001. White has since sent numerous cease and desist letters to those using the image without his permission.
- Thank you.
Also the official bird of Quebec!
- A darn fine choice! All our state animals just seem to be things the settlers liked to eat...
  
  Yummy owl 😋
  
  Officially, it's been selected because it highlights Québec's stance on wildlife protection since it's an endangered species.
Elle a l'air de vouloir jouer.
- Snowy Owl Peekaboo
  
  Ce n'est pas la même chouette, mais en voilà une qui s'amuse bien.
  
  Vous pouvez remercier Google si ce sont des mots très incorrects !
  
  C'est génial... Non, mieux : c'est chouette !
