British Columbia is the northern range limit of the Flammulated Owl (Otus flammeolus) in North America. The neotropical migrant breeds in dry, old montane Douglas-fir/ponderosa pine forests of western North America that extend south into northern Mexico. It overwinters in southern Mexico and Central America. The Flammulated Owl is an insectivorous, secondary cavity-nester and depends on commercially valuable forest for habitat in British Columbia. It requires an uneven-aged, multi-layered canopy stand structure, including old-growth features (snags for nesting, mature veteran trees for calling and roosting) and small openings adjacent to thickets of regenerating Douglas-fir (foraging and security). The owl’s provincial range boundaries and distribution are unknown, although inventories and observation records have shown that birds occur in the Okanagan, Kamloops-Merritt areas, Lillooet, southern Rocky Mountain Trench, and Cariboo-Chilcotin. Nesting has been observed in the Okanagan and empirically investigate
