It says they're white on Wikipediabut whatever, the overall effect is icy blue.
Look at this factoid:
The sentence "Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz" is a commonly used example of a pangram, (i.e. a sentence that contains all 26 letters of the English alphabet), while the sentence itself is only 31 letters long.

The main picture on their wiki article is a particularly sexy specimenI'm tenting just looking at it.
And the one further down the page, of the jackdaw in Bushy Park, is as good as any of those 'ORLY' owls.
Like the pangram. I shall have to find a way to use that more often in conversation.
