FARMINGTON – The Western Maine Audubon Society is resuming programs again, and Susan Gallo, wildlife biologist for the Maine Audubon Society, will describe the state’s Audubon Society owl program at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 19, at the University of Maine at Farmington Roberts Center, Room C23.

Gallo is a Maine Audubon Society staff biologist whose responsibilities include wildlife surveys and monitoring, such as the Owl Project.

Calling in owls is a fun and intriguing way to spend a late-winter evening, she said. At this time of year, great-horned and barred owls should be on their territories and actively pursuing a mate, if not already on a nest with eggs.

Because they’re territorial, they’re likely to respond to imitations of their call, making this the best time to hear – and possibly see – owls.
