โTo me, the screech-owl is the quintessential owl โ strictly nocturnal, large yellow eyes, and ear tufts. Their vocalizations are composed of soft hoots repeated in accelerating and descending fashion. I love hearing them at night, and they remind me of warm spring evenings." 2/7
Since joining the #BoiseState faculty in 1993 as an assistant professor, Belthoffโs dedication to education and raptor research has been shared with hundreds of students, and in return, he says he has learned volumes from them. 3/7
โI learn as much from each of my students as they might from me. It is continuously amazing to see the accomplishments of all of our raptor biology students once they leave Boise State, as many have gone on to be science and government leaders in their own right.โ 4/7
