Hi,
I am doing biological research on Bonaire from january untill may, on the raptors including the barn owl.
I am wondering if anybody ever seen a barn owl. Such an observation maybe points to a residence of this bird.
Please let me know if you ever seen it and can remember where.

Maarten, lucky you!

The Barn Owl is listed under common species of birds at this site:

Hope this helps?

Have fun,

Maarten,

Jerry Ligon who works at Bonaire Dive and Discover, next to Sand Dollar, is an enthusiast and knowledgeable birder who has been studying all birds on Bonaire for several years now. I expect he could point you to locations for your work and generally help. His email address is: jcligon@bonairelive.com .

There is a second naturalist at BD&D who might be of help also, as well as some residemts who bird.

Thanks a lot for these pointers, Sarah and Glenn.
Greeting and bon tardi from sunny Bonaire.
I am feeling lucky
