Lauren Meads, Field Director and South Okanagan Operations Manager of the Burrowing Owl Conservation Society of BC., will speak about the progress the Society and its partners is making in burrowing owl recovery. Lauren says “we are increasingly working with partners in reversing the decline of burrowing owls in the Americas. These partners are in the US, the rest of Canada and even into South America. We continue to make great strides with our program here in BC with the expansion of suitable habitat with many engaged land stewards. What will be the future of burrowing owl recovery in BC and potentially the world in the coming years? I will also bring with me our newest member of the education team: Pluto the Burrowing Owl”
