I wonder if this years flam sights is simply a fluke The spring up her
in Estes was so cold and wet that maybe the owls simply stayed st lower
elevations for this nesting season.
I have a few areas around Estes Park where I would see flans every
year. This year the birds were absent. Also
Chuck Aid raised the question of possible harm to "Flame Owls" in a note to
CObirds on September 2.
That note and my response are below. I asked Dr. Brian Linkhart, FLOW
expert at Colorado College to weigh in, and his note follows too.
