I loved it because it (1)featured a barn owl-- I love their heart-shaped, white faces and had the pleasure of seeing them in the wild, (2)is a realistic look at a animals and the human connection (3)gave a interesting look at the biologists' world -- the black widow spider scientist was creepy and highly entertaining.<br /><br />If it ever rains around here again, I'll join you in cake and tea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4525594470029141306.post-87540433118175968632012-04-29T18:47:48.043+01:002012-04-29T18:47:48.043+01:00Baking on a rainy day, what a wonderful pass-time!...Baking on a rainy day, what a wonderful pass-time! The book sounds nice but too many lovely animal stories end sadly. I haven't gone to see the movie "War Horse" because I know there will be horses killed. I don't want to see that!
