A New Owl Research Institute Publication

The Owl Research Institute’s field studies of Short-eared Owls has been especially interesting, as is information gathered about other owl populations (photo by Paul Konrad).
One of the chapters in The Roost describes the complex nesting ecology of Great Gray Owls (cover photo by Daniel Cox).

Each year the Owl Research Institute produces The Roost, their annual newsletter that is filled with project updates, owl info, and many impressive photos. Actually, The Roost is more like a magazine than a newsletter, and it’s available now for anyone interested in owls, science, and conservation. This is the 29th annual publication of The Roost, and you will find the information it contains especially interesting, including the variety of owls being studied, ranging from Snowy Owls to Burrowing Owls, Great Gray Owls and Short-eared Owls, Northern Saw-whet Owls, and more.

Read about the variety of work being conducted by researchers and volunteers and a wealth of information collected in the field over a series of years and decades. It’s fascinating and such important work; learn more at Owl Research Institute and you can read a PDF or download a copy of The Roost at 46d7c6_182c547592f242acba39af44de554403.pdf (filesusr.com)
