A NATURAL HISTORY OF OWLS - By Michael Everett - Hardback Book | |

ISBN: 0600365751 | £15.00

| |
| Carefully illustrated with forty photographs in full colour and 130 in black and white, this is a comprehensive study of the owl. In the opening chapters the author analyses the origins and evolution of owls on the basis of the best, fragmentary evidence. He then goes on to survey the owls of the world which range in size from the diminutive Elf Owl of America to the powerful Eurasian Eagle Owl. All habitats and food sources are explored, as is the specialized anatomy of the birds. He concludes with a look a the 'home life' of owls, including courtship, mating, bringing up the young, followed by a important chapter on owl's relationship with man - unfortunately not always happy.
