You’ve often noticed their distinctive calls but what else do you know about the elusive Boobook?
Susan Trost and Jerry Olsen have studied Southern Boobook owls in Canberra since 1993 and have documented their breeding, hunting, and their conflicts with neighbouring Boobooks and other animals in a number of scientific papers. They will talk about this work, and the raptors you are likely to see on Mount Majura hunting or breeding alongside Southern Boobook owls.

This will the last talk of FoMMs’ Hilltop to Backfence lecture series.
