Took a trip today via Helicopter with my buddy Scott into the Stein Wilderness area.
Scott was comissioned to fly one researcher and a BC Park Ranger into the the area to locate the endangered Spotted Owl. There appear to be around 20 of them in the area, but their outlook is not good. We landed near a known nesting site to try to locate a nest right off the start. I was hoping to get a photo as it is very likely that I'll never see one again. We were not able to find any, they were somewhere else. The hope is that it is still on 'winter territory' schedule as there is a decent amount of snow where we were (compared to last year).
The Spotted Owl is the most endangered animal in all of Canada.
