We have had the pleasure of watching 28 burrowing owl young grow from tiny 8 gram white fluff balls to 130-140 gram wide-eyed young owls. Burrowing owls are an endangered species in Manitoba and throughout their range in Canada. The Manitoba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program\u2019s (MBORP) reintroduction activities to encourage nesting success has paid off. This season&#8217;s efforts have resulted in the highest number of fledged young since the inception of MBORP in 2010.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-dnm7y1f-c1989a8b7b51c848a5b755d515cce0bd av_one_full  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrxvool2-99823e69351ad78c77b8073aacd4e083\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxvool2-99823e69351ad78c77b8073aacd4e083 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxvool2-99823e69351ad78c77b8073aacd4e083 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrxvool2-99823e69351ad78c77b8073aacd4e083 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-8  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-54469 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-54469 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_BurrowingOwlFewDaysOld_T.Denolf.png' alt='' title='ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_BurrowingOwlFewDaysOld_T.Denolf'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-cyxx7gz-7e110f120ff5c3f3b16d38dd975985bf\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-cyxx7gz-7e110f120ff5c3f3b16d38dd975985bf{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-cyxx7gz-7e110f120ff5c3f3b16d38dd975985bf hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwbq15-1b5f732c928c8837d8e8ca5b989dfb6e'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>A burrowing owl, only a few days old.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-csxokk3-53ebe21c4ab2ce7ed931d55d0cce4cb1 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwcp70-e364a1d4b7cfe06b59e00d5b15bcf9b2'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Extremely dry summer conditions in 2021 have been ideal for nesting burrowing owls. Nests have remained dry and food sources are abundant with many grasshoppers around. Climate change is a real threat to species at risk like burrowing owls. Most species cannot adapt to these rapid changes and this negatively impacts these already struggling and small populations. During the 2010-2014 breeding seasons, captive-release and wild nests were plagued by flooding due to extreme summer storms event in southwestern Manitoba devastating most nests.<\/p>\n<p>Another positive for the 2021 season is the absence of predation events. MBORP installs Reconyx trail cameras at all nest sites to monitor activities 24 hours a day. This season, only two observations of raccoons were noted on the trail cameras after young had hatched. These curious raccoons made no attempt to access the enclosure and ultimately left the owl burrows alone. All 28 owl young survived the early vulnerable nesting stages.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-17ms8mr-ed15863a192542662fc53f9fb1abf3e6 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrxwd58o-daedb376785d4eed95b765933ce7df78\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwd58o-daedb376785d4eed95b765933ce7df78 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwd58o-daedb376785d4eed95b765933ce7df78 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrxwd58o-daedb376785d4eed95b765933ce7df78 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-14  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-54470 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-54470 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_RaccoonInEnclosure_T.Denolf.png' alt='' title='ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_RaccoonInEnclosure_T.Denolf'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-bjmyamr-480cb560df69c99a8a857172cf6e0e6b\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-bjmyamr-480cb560df69c99a8a857172cf6e0e6b{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-bjmyamr-480cb560df69c99a8a857172cf6e0e6b hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwdes6-8aa5bada3c9f3adc12dcf3ac3acc4b98'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>A raccoon spotted in one of the enclosure trail cameras.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-bfpq9xv-fa374671042d3e49df9003428fa8875a av_one_full  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwdhxx-70b3c999ff18365408d25d4684935248'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>To increase survival of young, we increase the supplement of mice provided to each family group. This encourages strong, healthy young and reduces sibling competition. Every few days we checked the burrows to make sure all young were accounted for during their first few weeks. I found that it was better to take a deep breath prior to opening the burrow lid, as the stagnant underground air of the burrow was filled with the smell of old mice and owl excrement. The odour only became increasingly unpleasant following the next several weeks of humid, 30+ \u2103 temperatures. I couldn\u2019t help but feel sorry for the young owls living inside, although I\u2019m sure it didn\u2019t even phase them as they don\u2019t have a great sense of smell and they really do enjoy

samples with the help of the veterinarians from the Assiniboine Park Zoo. <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/fr\/blog\/whats-going-on-here\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(Read more about the weighing technique here.)<\/a> Banding burrowing owls allows us to identify individuals along migration and on the breeding grounds in the northern U.S. and in Canada. Should anyone observe one of the owls banded by MBORP, they can report the unique alpha-numeric colour coded band to the Canadian Wildlife Service bird banding office or to a local conservation organization. This information will find its way back to the bander\/conservation program.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of questions about burrowing owl migration. It\u2019s suspected that up to 50% of young do not survive their first migration due to several challenges they face along their migration path. The species faces many of these same challenges on the breeding grounds as well.\u00a0 We hope to learn more in the next few years with the use of satellite transmitters technology.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-8nsje2b-428be4af930f3a3552e89fd7f6733858 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-29  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrxwgcwx-02df47ca65c5d588095e1ad46fe18b50\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwgcwx-02df47ca65c5d588095e1ad46fe18b50 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwgcwx-02df47ca65c5d588095e1ad46fe18b50 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrxwgcwx-02df47ca65c5d588095e1ad46fe18b50 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-30  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-54467 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-54467 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_Banding_T.Denolf.png' alt='' title='ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_Banding_T.Denolf'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-7ybhez7-e7197807858c08cbde0551f459a4ef11\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-7ybhez7-e7197807858c08cbde0551f459a4ef11{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-7ybhez7-e7197807858c08cbde0551f459a4ef11 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-31  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwgt80-df594178205a117bd983057acb334404'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>A burrowing owl being banded.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-qw9kfn-53f5541852becd6b6a9424821b64a147 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-33  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrxwglkm-f19ded6c8e27fce52ee5a59ca4f7e6c3\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwglkm-f19ded6c8e27fce52ee5a59ca4f7e6c3 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrxwglkm-f19ded6c8e27fce52ee5a59ca4f7e6c3 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrxwglkm-f19ded6c8e27fce52ee5a59ca4f7e6c3 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-34  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-54472 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-54472 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_Weighing_T.Denolf.png' alt='' title='ASeasonOfSuccess28YoungBurrowingOwls_Weighing_T.Denolf'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-77cda5v-c7341b17822580dd496f64f3e4fa1861\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-77cda5v-c7341b17822580dd496f64f3e4fa1861{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-77cda5v-c7341b17822580dd496f64f3e4fa1861 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-35  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwh1b7-122c75aa6da6739e37ec360d413e1cf5'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>A burrowing owl being weighed.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-6pqnhv7-92df345fa0fedd7f36ed6add2f178064 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-37  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwhc1f-d70270d0e313e8e3c89c4058c6d8b20c'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Owl young are not sexually dimorphic, meaning their sex cannot be determined by looking at them.

Removing a few young from each nest will help increase their chances of survival of the young remaining in the wild as there is less competition for food and this ultimately increases overall body condition prior to migration. We want to give each one of these\u00a0 burrowing owl young the best chance to survive to fledging, post-fledging on the breeding grounds and navigating their first migration. Watching these unique little owls grow in front of our eyes has truly been a surreal and rewarding experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4zxuwj7-b06ba7cfb7706cbf7963dc5ba8ea76b6\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-4zxuwj7-b06ba7cfb7706cbf7963dc5ba8ea76b6{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-4zxuwj7-b06ba7cfb7706cbf7963dc5ba8ea76b6 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-45  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-4fwojgz-78a7734efa1903a45f00293762205c4d main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-46  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  blog-inner avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-14675'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-42lpbar-b7f05238d97afc33b6d57e3de5f0add5 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-47  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  author-section first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrxwiwwk-2c6bec9133ebfd05974a31afd31d8250'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Taylor Denolf<\/h3>\n<h5 class=\"et_pb_member_position\">Field Technician &#8211; Burrowing Owl Recovery<em><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n<p>Taylor will be entering her final year of her Bachelor of Science Degree Program at Brandon University this fall, 2021.
