Abstract

Thank you Mr. Chairman and thank you, Dr. Shoesmith, for your greetings and comments. On behalf of the Wildlife Branch, I, too, want to welcome everyone to Manitoba. I must say that I am overwhelmed by the extent to which the interest and excitement in northern forest owls that we saw here in 1987 has grown since that time. A lot has happened in owl research throughout the world, and a lot has happened in the management of Manitoba's natural resources in the last 10 years.
