The White Devil & the Twisted, Young Owl: A Mostly-True Wildlife Story

Más información sobre el libro

In the woodlands of D.C., three old friends embark on an unexpected adventure while trying to save a peculiar young owl. The forest along the Potomac River is teeming with wildlife, including the quirky Erik, affectionately nicknamed the "White Devil" by an elderly lady. This title suits him well, reflecting his pale appearance and his sometimes questionable morals. Known for his devilish humor, Erik often finds amusement in the flaws of others, tempting them with their vices—bringing pastries to the overweight and cigarettes to smokers. However, the situation with the young owl is different. Erik recounts a vivid encounter while jogging along Cabin John Creek, where he spotted a fox startled by two owls. To his surprise, he then found a young owl on the ground, its head twisted in an unnatural position. His urgency and concern for the owl's well-being are palpable as he insists that something is wrong with it. This story, filled with humor and camaraderie, is the second in Megan's Mostly-True Stories series, following The Great Aunt Alice Collection. Megan Schreiber-Carter, a third-generation native of the Pennsylvania Wilds' Allegheny Mountains, brings her unique perspective to this delightful tale. For more information, visit www.megansdesk.net.
