Conservation Dept. here in New York State has requested my assistance trapping short eared owls for research purposes.
They plan to fit two birds with telemetry transmitters.
I constructed four bal-chatris of type I have used for buteos.
Dept. also has purchased large mist net.
On the initial attempt the birds disregarded gerbil baited bal-chatris.
Anyone out there with experience or advice concerning short ears.
