2007 MOMP Field Season Summary

Last year, more than 110 volunteers went out on 84 MOMP routes across the state on cold spring nights to listen for owls. This is more routes than we've had in the past, though fewer owls (404) were detected during the season. A change in protocol that included Long-eared Owl playbacks yielded 15 detections for this species, many more than in previous years of MOMP. Read full 2007 Results here.
