Where: Unless otherwise noted, these events are held at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Boulder, 5001 Pennsylvania Ave. (off 55th St. between Arapahoe and Baseline) Scott Rashid's new book contains 160 striking photos and drawings of four small mountain owls of the Rocky Mountains: flammulated owl, northern pygmy-owl, northern saw-whet owl, and boreal owl. He'll discuss the lives and ranges of these tiny predators, along with their anatomy, coloration, vocalizations, diets, hunting strategies, and nesting behaviors. Scott has been banding birds and studying small owls in Rocky Mountain National Park for 20 years, so expect wonderful stories about owl encounters and owl behavior. Scott will sign copies of Small Mountain Owls after the program. Scott is a licensed bird bander, bird rehabilitator, artist, and researcher. As an artist, Scott has been able to depict aspects of the owls' behaviors that have not been previously described. His art is presently hanging in private collections throughout North America, Europe, and Australia. NOTE: The Holiday Sale begins at 6:15pm, prior to Scott's program.
