Beschreibung
'Perched on the back of a sunlit chair was something about 9 inches tall and shaped rather like a plump toy penguin with a nose-job. It appeared to be wearing a one-piece knitted jumpsuit of pale grey fluff with brown stitching complete with an attached balaclava helmet. From the face-hole of the fuzzy balaclava two big shiny black eyes gazed up at me trustfully. Kweep it said quietly.'

When author Martin Windrow met the tawny owlet that he christened Mumble it was love at first sight. Raising her from a fledgling through adolescence and into her prime years Windrow recorded every detail of their time living together (secretly) in a south London tower block and later in a Sussex village. This is the touching intriguing and eccentric story of their 15-year relationship complete with photographs and illustrations of the beautiful Mumble. Along the way we are given fascinating insight into the ornithology of owls - from their evolution and biology to their breeding habits and hunting tactics. The Owl Who Liked Sitting on Caesar is a witty quirky and utterly charming account of the companionship between one man and his owl.
