A good supplement to your Sibleys, Nat Geo, or Petersons if you reside in or plan to visit Maine, and a wonderful gift for aspiring birders who live there [If you live in NYS, Corey’s American Birding Association Field guide to Birds of New York is a great gift. Yes, this is a shameless plug, but it’s also true.].

There are owls in New York City. They are the city’s latest, maybe only, celebrity media sensation, and photographs show crowds of New Yorkers craning their necks up as far as their masks allow, holding phones at arm’s length, using opera glasses and huge binoculars that remind me of the ones my dad used at the racetrack.
