They are the only North American owl that nest underground. They require a burrow for nesting, but rely on burrowing mammals such as badgers, foxes and ground squirrels to excavate burrows for them. Part of my work with the Manitoba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program is to install artificial nest burrows in suitable pastureland around southwestern Manitoba. The owls appear to prefer the artificial nest burrows even when natural burrows are available. In the last three seasons, we have observed several owls and pairs using artificial nest burrows.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfk2dmat-779b7c140383b3970afaf023afd5fa73\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfk2dmat-779b7c140383b3970afaf023afd5fa73 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfk2dmat-779b7c140383b3970afaf023afd5fa73 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfk2dmat-779b7c140383b3970afaf023afd5fa73 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-37203 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37203 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Web-installation.jpg' alt='' title='Web-installation'  height=\"1800\" width=\"1500\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfk2e495-d72f41e3576fd221d459b24fb05673be'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Installation of an artificial nest burrow.

Their population has decreased from 76 pairs in the 1980\u2019s to only one pair in 1996. This drastic population decline is due to many factors but the most challenging of all is habitat loss. They require burrows in flat, open grassland and unfortunately much suitable land has been converted to other land use. The owls also face challenges during their long migration like finding safe stop over locations, burrows, food, and inclement weather. Unfortunately, being a small owl that spends a lot of time on the ground means there are a lot of natural predators on the ground and in the sky, like larger owls, hawks, coyotes, foxes, badgers, racoons, and skunks.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-9gx5u3-e1665ec8d627d95f6235e9451a60a11d av_one_full  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfk2jnmp-ca0a3dec7d0f2a9730602fa0530b7d5c'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h5>5.

With burrowing owls, this is not the case. Female and males look almost the same making it difficult to differentiate with a quick glance. During the breeding season, there are a few ways we can figure out who is who. Male burrowing owls will call coo-coo to attract females and to protect their burrow from other males. Females do not make this call. Males usually return earlier to the area to scope out the best territory (burrows). Female owls will develop a brood patch in preparation for incubating eggs. She will lose a patch of feathers on her lower abdomen so the eggs can have contact with her warm skin during incubation. Another way to determine sex in the breeding season is observe the pair after the nesting stage. The female is the sole incubator of the eggs and remains mostly in the burrow for 30 days. As she has been down the burrow incubating eggs her feathers appear much darker in colour than the male, whose feathers become sun-bleached being out in the sun everyday.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfk2kuj1-5f93da787ddd97f5d8ed8655c505f8ce\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfk2kuj1-5f93da787ddd97f5d8ed8655c505f8ce img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfk2kuj1-5f93da787ddd97f5d8ed8655c505f8ce .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfk2kuj1-5f93da787ddd97f5d8ed8655c505f8ce av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-37200 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37200 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/adult-comparison-1.jpg' alt='' title='adult-comparison-1'  height=\"1440\" width=\"2048\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfk2lhzt-a00680cce1d14e17e560d05b980831f8'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>An image from one of our trail cameras.

These young owls, along with their parents are now released into the wild to join the wild population. They will continue to grow and learn how to hunt leaving the Manitoba prairie in September and October.
