The other night, I gave a talk on my screech owl book for Hasbrouck Heights' Free Public Library and the town's Garden Club.
The turnout was great, the audience was engaging, and I enjoyed myself immensely. There was even an owl in the room — but not the type you'd expect.
The owl was a "Meeting Owl 3" from Owl Labs.
The device has a center-of-room camera/microphone that zooms in on speakers’ faces for a face-to-face view.
As you can see, it even looks like an owl.
