Show Notes
When Jonathan Slaght's Owls of the Eastern Ice came out last year, it was met with high praise. Slaght's search for the enigmatic Blakiston's Fish-Owl is a part of natural history, part adventure, and part character study set in a part of the world that very few of us know at all, except, perhaps, as the place many of our rare birds come from. It is out now in paperback, and Slaght joins host Nate Swick to talk about owls, writing, and conservation work in the Russian Far East.
Also, Nate considers the official extinction of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker.
