Burrowing Owl Monitoring

  • Meeting Location to Carpool to Monitoring Site 1133 West 113th Avenue Westminster, CO, 80234 United States (map)

I am excited to offer Burrowing Owl monitoring sessions as part of my 2024 Events! I signed up to be a designated monitor through the Urban Prairies Project, put on by the Butterfly Pavilion. They are hoping to gather important information about Burrowing Owl behaviors, numbers, and threats over several monitoring sites in order to help shape legislation to increase protections for these birds (and the other animals, insects, and plants within the habitat). This project will also help determine where Burrowing Owls are no longer being seen. There will be additional information given to each participant at each session. The sessions are “sit and watch” and we will spend a lot of time being quiet and making observations. There may be some hiking out to locations involved, as well as some general scouting of the area to add observations to our data sheets. If you want to learn more about our local Burrowing Owls, be involved in citizen science, and help shape our future, please consider signing up to join me! See below for the sign up form and additional information. Please reach out if you have ANY questions.
