More Description

"May I speak of those moments after sunrise when the mist is rising from the sea and the fog is fingering the canyons of Big Sur?" And so we begin the exploration of the woman who defended wildlife and the environment with a fierce sense of stewardship.

Sea otters, sea lions, mountain lions -- Margaret Owings's essays, poetry and art weave the voices of the sea, the forests and wildlife into a rich tapestry of passion for the natural world. Founder of the Friends of the Sea Otter, Margaret's lyrical words evoke images of storm-tossed seas, ancient redwood glades, moonlit nights in Africa, cliff-dwellings of the Southwest and the artists, writers, and friends who shared her fascination with nature. From Wild Bird, her cliffside home along California's rugged Big Sur coast, she inspired each of us to celebrate the natural world.
