We Heard an Owl Last Night
March 23, 2007
Last night was the second time in my life that I recall hearing an owl in the wild. Not that suburban America is “the wild,” but you get my point. Anyway, after listening for a while I was able to determine that it was a Barred Owl (also known as a hoot owl) by researching North American owls online, and sampling a few audio clips (listen below). Special thanks to the Owl Pages for the audio clip and the Wildlife Center of Virgina for the image. I also really like this picture from Wikipedia.
