Burrowing Owl Distribution and Nest Site Selection in Western South Dakota

Thiele, Jason

The burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) is a species of conservation concern in South Dakota. The species’ range in the state is reduced from its historical extent, and it is now mostly restricted to the counties west of the Missouri River, where it usually nests in black-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys …

The Influence of Grazing Treatments on Density of Nesting Burrowing Owls on the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation

Murray, Joanna O.

<p>Grazing enhances burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) habitat in tall-grass prairies; however, limited research has been conducted in mixed-grass prairies regarding the relationship between burrowing owls and large herbivores. I examined the influence of grazing by bison (Bison bison) and cattle …

Observations on the breeding ecology of burrowing Owls in Saskatchewan

Haug, Elizabeth AnneUniversity of Saskatchewan1985

Observations regarding breeding biology of burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia) were collected on 98 breeding pairs during 1982 and 1983. Pairs of owls were first observed on the study area in late April with clutch initiation beginning in mid-May. Overall nest success averaged 59 percent with 2.6 …
