FURTHER DATA ON SCREECH-OWL DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT USE IN WYOMING

Abstract

Fitton’s (1993) report on the distribution of the Western Screech-Owl (Otus kennicottii) and Eastern Screech-Owl (O. asio) in Wyoming was prompted by the lack of information on these species and their recent recognition as distinct. For nearly the same reasons, we undertook a similar project—without being aware of Fitton’s study.
