Results for the year 2000

In several of my nest boxes, Flying Squirrels have nested. I presume they are Northerns, Glaucomys sabrinus. By the way, these nest boxes were built by my nephews, Nicholas and Bradley Elliott - Thanks Guys!
 

However, of the 28 nest boxes in suitable Boreal Owl habitat, one box this year hosted Northern Saw-whet Owls Aegolius acadicus. More boxes will be put up next spring when I to to check the current ones; more will also be put up at various times next summer. I'll need volunteers for those trips. Drop me a note if you're interested.
