The Manitoba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program (MBORP) is non-profit, on-the-ground conservation program addressing the ongoing decline of endangered burrowing owls in southwestern Manitoba. The program is working towards recovery for the species through field and educational activities like reintroduction, surveys and monitoring, habitat enhancement and education.
From the MBORP website: "Our program is working to recover the species through reintroductions, surveys and monitoring of wild owls and nests and habitat improvement through the installation of artificial nest burrows. Annually, throughout the breeding season (May-August) we work with select private landowners to reintroduce burrowing owl pairs and young. We also engage landowners (cattle farmers) in burrowing owl conservation through the installation of artificial nest burrow installations. We do not want to see burrowing owls disappear from Manitoba and Canada."
On Friday, October 23rd, we are thrilled to be joined by a MBORP educator and ambassador, Bindi!
Lunch will be provided for in-person attendees at 1:30pm, the presentation will start at 2:00pm and can be viewed virtually via Zoom!
