"Hans Peeters has done it again. His stellar "Field Guide to Owls of California and the West" is a fitting companion to his recent, acclaimed "Raptors of California.""Owls" is not only an excellent field guide, but also an amazing primer on owl biology and behavior. It sets a new standard and, what's more, is both a visual treat and a captivating read."--Clay Sutton, coauthor of "How to Spot an Owl" and other books "An enjoyable and wonderfully illustrated companion to "Raptors of California." Treating the relatively familiar Great Horned Owl and obliging Burrowing Owl with the same skill as those ghostly forest species that are rarely more than disembodied voices for most of us, this book provides keen insights on the natural history of our most mysterious group of birds and sheds light on the complex conservation issues that face many owl species."--Kimball L. Garrett, Ornithology Collections Manager, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County "This is the owl book I've been waiting for. Peeters has delivered an exquisitely illustrated, thoroughly researched, and engagingly written guide that will be as valuable to young students as it will be to seasoned biologists."--Allen Fish, Director, Golden Gate Raptor Observatory
