Description
The crows' intelligence, sagacity, and penchant to interact with humans has captivated human imaginations for decades. Yet only a few people have had the opportunity or motivation to devote much of their life to trying to understand them.
A lifelong sojourn for Robert Butler all began with a pet crow he fostered as a teenager. From that auspicious moment, Butler watched and listened to crows in remote coastal locations of British Columbia and Alaska, and the suburbs near Vancouver to reveal a story like no other. With humour and scientific insight the Society of Crows will charm and surprise you.
Illustrated by original artwork by the author, the book is partly a biographical adventure to uncover new discoveries of the coastal dwelling crow in British Columbia.
