Higgens Park Route. We heard this owl in response to 

 initial playback at both calling stations. It remained in 

 the same location (T12N,R8E, Sect . 36,NWl/4 , SE1/4) , and 

 called vigorously. This was the only boreal owl located 

 in a whitebark pine stand, stand number 701-02-04, and 

 was the only boreal owl that did not move in response to 

 song playback. This was also the only location where we 

 heard a boreal owl and great horned owls in close 

 proximity. 



Calling points 7-065 and 7-066, 3/15/91, 10:04 pm to 10:37 pm, 

 Williams Park Route. This location provided the only 

 visual observation of a boreal owl during the survey. The 

 owl was initially heard giving an OOO-WEE call at calling 

 point 7-066 (T13N,R6E,Sect.20,NEl/4,NEl/4) . The owl then 

 followed the surveyors to the next calling point 7-065 

 (T13N,R6E,Sect.l6,SWl/4,NWl/4) , where it was observed 

 calling in a tree adjacent to the road. There the owl was 

 heard giving the typical winnowing call. The owl was 

 initially located in stand 713-05-009, which is 

 classified as lodgepole, well stocked and moved to stand 

 713-05-29, which is also classified as lodgepole, well 

 stocked.
