open and non-contiguous forest, small openings, woodland, and rocky slopes. Canyon habitat is typically characterized by the cool, humid conditions found in deep, steepwalled, fractured structures. Canyons frequently contain patches or stringers of riparian and conifer forest, and adjacent slopes and mesa tops are vegetated by a variety of plant associations. Owl habitat may exhibit a mixture of attributes between the forested and canyon habitat types.
