Greetings, The Western Great Lakes Owl Monitoring Project is seeking volunteers to complete spring owl surveys throughout the entire state of Minnesota during April of 2008. Volunteers are assigned a nine-mile, predetermined route that they will survey ONCE between April 1 and 15, 2008, making five-minute stops at one mile intervals to passively listen for calling owls (no playback used for this project). We have routes open all over Minnesota, though metro areas are already filled. Our biggest gap in coverage is western and SW Minnesota. The WGL Owl Monitoring project will supply maps, instructions and training CDs to volunteers prior to April 1. If you're interested in volunteering for a route, please email Julie O'Connor, Volunteer Coordinator, at joconnor at hawkridge.org. Please include the following information in your email: --Your full name --Your mailing address --Your telephone number --Your city of residence --How far you would be willing to drive to the start of a route. Thank you, we hope you'll join us!
