A year after the original comment, but just wanted to say that I've seen the beak vary in color from very pigmented orange-yellow to very pale yellow/almost white. I've noticed it in Great Gray Owls as well.
Thanks for the ID Liam. I'm doubtful about one thing though: its beak (bill?) is not orange-yellow in color. According to your reference, Ural Owl has an orange-yellow beak (bill?).
