EDITORS COMMENTS
At seven weeks, no chick should be expected to read. But the young eagle owl at Whipsnade insists on doing everything Adrian Walker does. In this delightful print captured by Arthur Sidey in August 1988, we witness an unusual and humorous sight that perfectly encapsulates the bond between man and nature. The image portrays a man with a distinguished mustache engrossed in reading a book, while perched beside him is the adorable young eagle owl, equally absorbed in its own tiny book. The sheer absurdity of this scene brings a smile to our faces as we marvel at the unexpected companionship shared between these two beings. This photograph not only showcases the intelligence and curiosity of animals but also highlights their ability to form unique connections with humans. It serves as a reminder that even in moments where logic may dictate otherwise, there exists room for playfulness and connection beyond what society deems possible. Arthur Sidey's skillful capture transports us back to the vibrant 1980s era when such quirky encounters were cherished and celebrated. As we gaze upon this timeless image, it invites us to embrace humor and wonderment in our lives while appreciating the beauty found within unlikely friendships.
