This U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service grant is for the critical purpose of monitoring Flammulated Owls, a species of conservation concern with uncertain population trends that is currently poorly monitored. Awarded as a single-source cooperative agreement to the Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory, this initiative will design a range-wide survey using grid-based points, aligning with project design criteria agreed upon by the Partners In Flight Western Working Group. The project aims to implement these surveys within national forests in Colorado and support partner efforts across other western states. This grant addresses the urgent need to understand and conserve Flammulated Owl populations, contributing vital data for conservation strategies and ensuring long-term species viability. The performance period extends to December 31, 2012.
