While I volunteered with Hungry Owl Project (www.hungryowls.org), I did many presentations at schools with my good friend, Suzanne. Suzanne did most of the talking. I had the easy job - I brought out a glorious Western Screech Owl. Fully grown, he is about 7" from the top of his head to the end of his tail. Found in a forest in Sonoma, he was visually impaired so could not fend for himself in the wild.

Like me, Suzanne fell in love with that little screech owl (by the way, screech owls do NOT screech). As a result, I've done several paintings and etchings of him but nothing has quite caught his character. And Suzanne has been writing and illustrating owl-oriented children's books.
