Abstrakt: Driving along rows at Bouchaine Vineyards during fall harvest season in Napa Valley, Rebecca Rosen's Toyota Tundra looks like a typical Wine Country pickup truck, packed with tools for the harvest. But inside the cab are a young spectacled owl on a perch and a border collie mix riding shotgun, with two falcons in the shell-covered truck bed. While driving, Rosen absentmindedly rubs the owl's head, and it leans into her hand as if asking for more pressure. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
