From Mountaineers Books:

The Snowy Owl–also known as the Arctic Owl, Snowy White Owl, and White Owl–is one of the most easily identified but least understood owls in the world.

Award-winning author and photographer Paul Bannick delves into the natural history of this owl species, including the latest research, providing readers with comprehensive yet accessible looks at their preferred habitat, hunting and feeding behavior, mating and nesting actions, owlets and fledglings, and more.

This beautiful book follows Bannick’s bestselling titles, The Owl and the Woodpecker and Owl, providing fans with another emotionally rich photographic portfolio and engaging, informative text.

by Paul Bannick

From Mountaineers Books:

The Great Gray Owl–also known as the Phantom of the North, Great, Gray Ghost, and Bearded Owl–is one of the largest owl species and lives in the western mountains and boreal regions of North America.

Award-winning author and photographer Paul Bannick delves into the natural history of this owl species, including the latest research, providing readers with comprehensive yet accessible looks at their preferred habitat, hunting and feeding behavior, mating and nesting actions, owlets and fledglings, and more.

Bannick’s unique and gorgeous owl images are enhanced by additional images of the owls’ habitats and other species that share the Great Gray ecosystems. Throughout each narrative, his time in the field observing and photographing these enigmatic birds comes to life in evocative, experiential passages.

 

“A Visual Natural History”, indeed! Wow, these books are filled with some amazing photographs. But if you’ve seen either of Bannick’s previous books (Owl and The Owl and the Woodpecker), then this is no surprise. Those books prove that the author is intimately familiar with these birds, so the text here should be just as good as the pictures.
