owl-like Pokémon survey; basic zoology of the order Strigiformes (Owls)
I am a zoologist who enjoys sharing my love of the animal kingdom with lifelong learners of all ages. I've also been playing video games since the first gen of everything, not just Pokémon ;) I also have nearly two decades experience as a home education advocate, including homeschooling my own children from preschool through high school. I am a big proponent of flexible learning, individualized education, and supporting fellow neurodiverse learners, so please don't hesitate to reach out to me with requests for accommodations or additional resources. We all learn in our own way and time, but everyone should have the chance to learn about how cool animals are! 😎

Learners with specific questions may also be directed to additional information on the official Pokémon page and/or relevant pre-screened science-related pages (e.g., a research journal or zoological database).
