Owls of the eastern ice : the quest to find and save the world's largest owl (engelsk)


Description


The forests near to where Russia, China and North Korea meet in a tangle of barbed wire are home to one of nature's rarest birds, the Blakiston's fish owl. A chance encounter with this huge, strange bird was to change wildlife researcher Jonathan Slaght's life beyond measure. During the following two decades, Slaght's quest to safeguard the elusive owl from extinction took him over thousands of miles of forbidding and threatened terrain.
