Owls On Silent Wings. The Wonder Series.
Cooper, Ann C.
This curriculum guide is all about owls and provides information on the folklore related to owls, present populations, explanations of physical characteristics, exploring owl pellets, burrowing owls, snowy owls, and great horned owls. Included are eight activities using owl cards, owl pellets, puzzles, and origami. This guide aims to increase awareness of owls and their plight and to encourage social action. Suggestions for action include starting an owl study group, speaking up for owls and owl habitat, supporting an owl in rehabilitation, and building owl nest boxes for yard and school habitats.
