A special event to kick off our 2023 Levad Memorial Fund campaign, Bird Conservancy of the Rockies presents a conversation with Marion Clément and Scott Weidensaul.
The Northern Saw-whet Owl is at once one of the most widespread but little-known raptors in North America, found from the northern edge of the boreal forest in Canada and Alaska to the high-elevation oak and pine forests of central Mexico, and migrates through even those regions where it does not breed. For more than 25 years, Scott Weidensaul has been involved in efforts to better understand this pint-sized woodland owl using banding, radio telemetry and even radar. Scott is also the author of over 30 books including Pulitzer Prize finalist Living on the Wind: Across the Hemisphere with Migratory Birds and New York Times bestseller A World on the Wing: The Global Odyssey of Migratory Birds.
This event is free, but registration is required.
Thank you to our partners!!
