Long-term data collection isn't the flashiest of biological pursuits. In a world that has come to expect fast results, the dedicated field biologist has become a bit of an outlier. But this is what the Owl Research Institute does, and does best. We observe, we survey, we log, and we repeat. And we've been repeating it for over 30 years. It is from this basic strategy that the magic emerges: the data takes shape, the patterns surface, the picture becomes clear.  

​

That's not to say we don't utilize resources that enable us to do the best work possible. As leaders in owl research, we use scientific, technological and creative methods to accomplish results. Equipped with knowledge, we educate people around the world and inspire them to make conservation minded choices.

Long-term biological research is critical to understanding an ever changing planet. As a result, we have many, species-specific projects underway at all times.
