|A project that I started in February 2021 arrives today.

That same month, Scott Weston and I began working together on a screech owl book, and we have been a great team ever since. (Thanks, Scott!)

And now The Screech Owl Companion,  from Timber Press is now officially on sale.

The book is pretty close to what I originally proposed (I featured this photo from Jerry Barrack back then, and it appeared in the finished book; Thanks, Jerry!):

"My goal is to write the best-darned screech owl book ever… For those who love screech owls or live near one…  To help screech owls flourish. This book offers, for the first time, an inside look at the remarkable secret lives of Eastern Screech Owls."

I even mentioned squirrels early on.

You can buy a signed copy at Wild Birds Unlimited in Paramus.
