Winter movements and habitat use of northern saw-whet owls at Assateague Island, Maryland
Ten Northern Saw-whet Owls were radio-tracked over two winters (1996 and 1997) at Assateague Island, Maryland. I used the fixed kernel method to calculate home range estimates for seven owls. Ninety-five percent home range sizes averaged 122.9 ha (range from 39.7--261.9 ha) but varied in size and …

Factors most closely explaining activity patterns and behavior of northern saw-whet owls in migratory stopover habitat
The northern saw-whet owl (Aegolius acadicus)—hereafter NSWO—is a small migratory owl whose nonbreeding ecology is poorly known. I captured and tagged 43 NSWO from 2022-2023 at Kennekuk County Park in central Illinois—a site used by NSWO as a migratory stopover and wintering location. The goal was …
