Why is the owl of the northern old forests suddenly sitting on a Småland clearing?
Why don't they move north in a warmer climate but instead quickly south? How can their serious eyes see right through us and straight through a night-dark forest? Why do they depend on crooked trees and pigeon hawks? And how is it that tawny owls can share territories with each other, unlike most other owls? These are some of the questions that this book tackles. Photographer Jonas Classon and author Anna Froster provide breathtaking insights into the everyday life of one of our most enigmatic creatures. From the young barn owls falling helplessly from the nest to them having to find somewhere to settle down themselves. Which is not the easiest thing for someone who completely lacks the ability to build their own nest. Little owl - the hidden essence of the forest also contains the story of an encounter that changed the entire life of a seriously ill teenager. And about how many years of struggle to capture the owl's essence finally came together.
