The Owl Research Institute's breeding biology studies on Montana owl species. How do we study wild owls, particularly during the nesting period, and what have we learned from it? ORI has been researching Owls in their natural habitats for over 35 years. I will present an overview and some data from a few of our studies, including Long-eared owls, Short-eared Owls, Northern Pygmy Owls, Boreal Owls, and Great Gray Owls.   

Beth has been studying owls and other raptors in the west for nearly 10 years and has been a field researcher at the Owl Institute since 2019. Prior to that, she earned her graduate degree from the University of Wyoming with an emphasis on Great Gray Owl genomics and did field research on various owl and raptor species.  

Beth's research has been focused primarily on North American owls in Montana, Alaska, and Wyoming. Current projects on Great Gray Owls, Short-eared Owls, Long-eared Owls, Pygmy owls, and Northern Saw-whet Owls in Montana keep her the very busy. Beth enjoys sharing her passion for field biology, birds, and conservation through public speaking and outreach.
