Thanks.

Can I ask a second question: a time period described as: a time after the Wisconsinan glacial maximum but before the close of the Pleistocene
Would it be fair to say between approximately 11,000-18,000 years before present to give a feel for what period we are looking at?

Wikipedia has an article about the Wisconsinan glacial period, see Wisconsin glaciation - Wikipedia

The holocene starts around 10,000 years ago so I think your gues is reasonably acurate.

Now we say late Pleistocene. I attached the Wetmore, 1937 paper, but unfortunatly birdforum refuses it.

Very interesting described in this paper are: Calohierax quadratus, Titanohierax gloveralleni, Tyto pollens. So for the paper you can also look at https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/campaigns/global_owl_project/descriptions/Fossil_owls/Tyto pollens (Wetmore) 1937.pdf, where you can find the descriptions of all fossil owl described before 2007, but of course, Birdforum is a better source!

Hope it helps,
