Owls of Colorado (Online)

Everyone enjoys seeing owls, and hearing hoots in the night can bring a bit of warmth to the chill of darkness.  But enjoying an owl, by sight or sound, does not equate to knowing about owls.  This class will explain what details make a bird an owl then it will present a brief account of the world’s owl diversity and how Colorado fits into that diversity.  A portrait of owl species known to occur in Colorado will include information about where, when, and how to find each species.  The outcome will be a knowledge base that expands the pleasure of engaging owls.
