Word from Canada - few to no GGOW nestlings in Manitoba or the Roseau
bog area of MN, many Long Eareds and Short Eareds in the Prairie regions
of Manitoba, and many Boreal Owls nesting in Alberta.  These birds have
a complex life cycle, to be sure. Are the Prairie areas in MN showing an
unusual abundance of Long Eareds or Short Eareds?  Please let us know of
your sightings.=20

Hi Mark,

=20

Interesting news from Alberta, Canada.

=20

As you may know - no nesting great gray owls found in my se MB and
adjacent MN study areas this spring/summer.

=20

Meanwhile about 100 km away in prairie habitats, both leow and seow's
are nesting in big numbers.

=20

Cheers, Jim

Hi Jim,

    Where did your little guy come from? He looks a little tired in that
picture :)

    Did you hear about our Boreal Owl explosion this year? We had 9
boxes with BOOW nests in them on top of our regular 20 or so saw-whets.
Fun stuff. Here are a few pictures. We also had quite a few Great Gray
Owls nesting in the area this year, but our lady at Rosax didn't reuse
the nest she'd been using for three years. It was getting a little
ratty. Ray is currently in New Zealand on vacation (it was Shirley's
idea) so I haven't been banding anything other than my saw-whets.=20

I'll be back in Manitoba soon. I'm packing up all my work and going to
the cabin for a change of venue.

Have a great day,

Heather
