Statewide Survey of Breeding Burrowing Owls in
California
During the 2006 and 2007 breeding seasons, IBP coordinated
hundreds of volunteers up and down California to assess the present-day
distribution and abundance of breeding Burrowing Owls in California.
We are using the Burrowing Owl survey data to:
• Map the distribution of Burrowing Owls across
the state
• Estimate the state-wide population size
• Estimate the population size for each of 14 individual regions
across the state
• Assess regional and statewide population changes since 1993,
when IBP last assessed the statewide population of breeding Burrowing
Owls
We will be posting survey results to
this site soon.
In the meantime, you can view our 2008 Spring Newsletter
for survey participants HERE.
