From prehistoric cave paintings to Picasso, owls have captivated and inspired us. They have been ancient Athenian symbols of wisdom, ghostly harbingers of death, and a postal courier for Harry Potter. Taking in the evolutionary quirks behind their silent flight and rotating heads, their romantic relationships and parenting styles, this book explores the natural history of owls as well as their role in folklore and culture.
