Hi Scott- On the Boulder CBC Eastern Screech-Owls have gotten quite difficult-
we've scraped by on 1 or 2 detections for several years now & I think they are
now missable on any given Boulder count, despite some pretty intense efforts in
places that used to produce them more reliably. Can't say why that would be
but from my experience personally and with the count I certainly don't think
they are as common as Great Horneds 'round here, even factoring in their lower
profile lifestyle.
Enjoy- Bill Schmoker, Longmont
