Based on her New York Times-bestselling book, Jennifer Ackerman shares what we have learned lately about the nature of the world’s most enigmatic birds. For millennia, owls have captivated and intrigued us. Our fascination with these mysterious birds was first documented more than 30,000 years ago in the Chauvet Cave paintings in southern France. With their forward gaze and quiet flight, owls are often a symbol of wisdom, knowledge, and foresight. But what does an owl really know? And what do we really know about owls? Some 260 species of owls exist today, and they reside on every continent except Antarctica, but they are far more difficult to find and study than other birds because they are cryptic, camouflaged, and mostly active in the dark of night. With remarkable photos, videos, and audio recordings, Ackerman explores the rich biology and natural history of owls and explains how scientists have only recently begun to understand in deep detail the complex nature of these extraordinary birds.Save the date: Wednesday, June 17th, from 5-8pm at Tin Mountain Conservation Center in Albany, NH.
