People Pick of the Week "Unfailingly precise and lovingly poetic. . . . Nature writing of the first order." --The Wall Street Journal "A beautiful book; wise and sharp-eared as its subject." --Robert Macfarlane One minute I was sipping my tea by the window. There was nothing but the palest edge of grey light and a wisp of steam from my cup--and then a shadow swooped out of the air. With the lightest of scratches, as if the dawn light was solidifying into life, there it was, perched like an exclamation mark on the balcony: an owl, come to my home.
