North American Owls--Journey through a Shadowed World
North American Owls--Journey Through a Shadowed World, published by Willow Creek Press in 2004
Other books will give you facts about owls. This one gives you facts, and superb visual images, and even more: the mystery, the poetry, the symbolism, the sheer magic of these extraordinary birds, from a man with deep knowledge of his subject. Thanks to Jim Burns for a vivid, visceral, wonderful book.
