This handsome owl is found only occasionally on night tours originating from
the Canopy Tower; most recently it was found near the Summit Ponds by Alexis Sanchez
on 10/29/06 (a Striped Owl was found the same night in roughly the same area, quite a double feature
on a night tour!). Crested Owl is quite possibly declining in population in the region; Ridgely reports that
it was at least formerly fairly common deep on Pipeline Road, but there are few birders around at night
to determine if this still holds true.
