Looking at a book like Barn Owl by David Chandler, it’s not hard to feel that appreciation even if you’ve never given the matter much thought before. In the end, Chandler comes very near his goal of creating “a book for anyone in Europe or North America who wants to know more about the Barn Owl.”

Just yesterday I learned that the Barn Owl ( Tyto alba ) is the only breeding bird found in New York that has been documented nesting in every month of the year.

I remember leaping off the couch escaping whatever mundane conversation to run outside, eyes peering as far as possible into the night sky in an attempt to locate the Barn Owl whose shriek I had just heard. We lived among rolling hills that had seen many years as a sugar cane estate, but prior to that was lowland dry forest.

At night, I could witness another expression of “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics” A hotel owner in the local village had become aware of a Barn Owl pair in a tree high up and right next to the roof of his hotel, and was now charging Chinese bird photographers a modest fee for tea and access to the roof.
