  We present the initial results from an [O III] lambda 5007 survey for
intra-group planetary nebulae in the M 81 group of galaxies. A total of 0.36
square degrees of the survey have been analyzed thus far, and a total of four
intra-group candidates have been detected. These data allow us to probe the
physics of galaxy interactions in small groups, and give us an upper limit for
the density of intracluster starlight. We find that the M 81 group has less
than 3% of its stars in an intra-group component; this is much less than the
fraction found in richer galaxy clusters.
