Oscar and Olive Osprey; A Family Take Flight
Watching the Ospreys that make the Chesapeake Bay region their home has long intrigued many boaters and wild life enthusiasts, but what about children? Why should youngsters spend their time passively watching life via a TV set, when there are so many exciting things to observe in the wild? For author Janie Suss, the antics of a family of birds can provide hours of entertainment plus teach children about science and nature? She has set out to do just that in her book for children entitled, “Oscar and Olive Osprey; A Family Takes Flight.”
Published by Synergy Books, the 101 page hardback is illustrated with numerous color photographs of the actual ospreys, Oscar and Olive that live at the end of Suss’s pier in front of her home in Holland Point near the borders of Anne Arundel and Calvert counties. Retailing for $15.95, it is available at online at local book sellers.
