I thought for sure this book would
have an owl in it. I read SPY OF THE FIRST PERSON, the final book by
Sam Shepard. Man, there was every kind of bird. This is from memory but SPY OF THE FIRST PERSON had
wrens in it, I think, and
swallows, and blackbirds and
robins and
blue jays and
towhees and
crows. I think there was a
pelican. Anyway, they were at the beach. With pelicans, I think. I haven't even gotten warmed up on all the kinds of birds in this book. There are birds on the cover. Well, there is no
actual owl inside, but there is "this pair of binoculars that
looked like owls' eyes," and as everyone knows,
that's good enough for me.
