About this listen

In this New York Times best seller, a naturalist probes the forest to comprehend the secret lives of owls. Leigh Calvez takes listeners on an adventure into the world of owls: owl-watching, avian science, and the deep forest - often in the dead of night. These birds are a bit mysterious, and that's part of what makes them so fascinating. Calvez makes the science entertaining and accessible while exploring the questions about the human-animal connection, owl obsession, habitat, owl calls, social behavior, and mythology.

The story is great but I can't listen to it. The narrator has such a grating voice.

worst narrator ever

Had to abandon book because of the strange, almost arrogant intonation. It was too distracting.

Awful voiceover
