Spring Owl Monitoring Volunteers Needed Who doesn't love the experience of hearing owls in the night?? The spring breeding season is the best time to hear owls courting, and we need your help to count them up!
The 2007 Western Great Lakes Spring Owl Monitoring Project is seeking volunteers to help complete owl surveys throughout the entire state of Minnesota. Volunteers will be assigned an existing route, and will be asked to survey their route once during each of 3 survey periods. Routes are 9 miles long; volunteers will stop at 1 mile intervals and listen for a 2 minute period at each stop. Survey periods are: March 9-18, March 19-Apr 8 and Apr 9-22.
