Barred
Owl Range Map
The Barred Owl is a year-round resident from
southern and eastern British Columbia, northern
Washington, and extreme northwestern Montana east
to central Saskatchewan, and from southern
Manitoba and central Ontario to New Brunswick and
Nova Scotia, south to central and southern Texas,
the Gulf Coast, southern Florida, and northern
Mexico. Northernmost populations are partially
migratory. The Barred Owl prefers dense woodlands
bordering lakes, streams, swamps, marshes, or low
meadows. It favors oak woodlands or mixed forests
free of a dense understory but also inhabits
deciduous, coniferous, and mixed forests. May
also inhabit isolated woodlots with numerous
mature trees.
