I absolutely loved this book. Not only is it an incredible love story between owl and human, it's an education in not just owl behavior, but general animal behavior and provides tremendous insights into the world of biologists. Stacey O'Brien has done a wonderful job of making her keen scientific observations of owls and people reading that keeps you turning the page. As an animal lover, a veterinary technician and a volunteer with a wildlife sanctuary I found this book fascinating and informative. I frequently read portions to my veterinarian husband who learned about owls right along with me. I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in animals, but especially to anyone working with wild animals.
