Owl Symposium coming up...



"Owls on the Move: When, Where, and Why"
A Symposium on Northern Owls
will take place on the campus of the
University of Minnesota, Duluth

the weekend of March 17, 18, & 19, 2006.

"Last winter, over 5,000 owls descended on northern Minnesota, setting records and drawing bird enthusiasts from across the country to this region. This March, a weekend symposium celebrating the mystique, natural history, and ecology of northern owls will be held in Duluth, Minnesota. Featuring owls, art, a poster session, and speakers from as far away as Finland, this one of a kind event will appeal to a wide range of owl enthusiasts. Proceeds will be used to further owl research and conservation."
