Burrowing Owl Reintroduction Initiative
The Bird Group is exploring a new initiative to reintroduce Burrowing Owls as a breeding species to areas of the Central Coast of California. The Burrowing Owl has disappeared as a breeding species from Central Coast grasslands from San Mateo County south to Santa Barbara County. We are currently preparing a study plan to reestablish breeding colonies of Burrowing Owls on coastal grasslands in Santa Cruz County in a pilot program, which, if successful, could be expanded to other areas of the Central Coast. Stay tuned!
