What owl did we hear?! We are near in a wooded park in vancouver tonight and we heard an owl I've never heard before.
It was definitely an owl and a possibly juvenile owl calling back and forth. The adult owl had a low hoot of three short hoots and a long hooooo. The juvenile was a loud squeaky squawk.
It went on for a long time but I couldn't record it with my audio as the background noise was too loud. I gave a try with merlin id and looked through all the likely owl calls and it didn't hear any that came close. It sounded fairly big but I know that can be deceiving. Anyone have any thought as to a less likely owl it might be?
