What an Owl Knows with Jennifer Ackerman

The Preamble

About this episode

Joining Sharon today is Jennifer Ackerman who has written a new book titled, What an Owl Knows, to discuss some new, rich scientific discoveries about these captivating and intriguing birds. Owls have often been a symbol of knowledge and wisdom, but what does an owl truly know? In a conversation both kids and adults can enjoy, Jennifer shines a light on the 260+ species of owls, to understand the depth and complexities of these enchanting creatures. Scientists are still discovering owl species due to their eerily quiet flight and camouflaged nature, but if you have ever wondered about their uniquely sophisticated communication sounds and family dynamics, or questioned how their brains work, this episode is for you.  Special thanks to our guest, Jennifer Ackerman, for joining us today.  Host/Executive Producer: Sharon McMahon Guest: Jennifer Ackerman Audio Producer: Jenny Snyder Hosted on Acast.
