  <font face="Arial" size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The wind became quite calm at dusk
and a stop in the Three Brooks area produced a pair of calling Great
Horned Owls. I discovered one&nbsp; atop a spruce and was interesting to
watch it cock its tail vigorously while making its call. Does this tail
cocking happen all year round, or is this something done during
breeding seasoon? </font>

  <div>I had a GHOW calling at dusk in early November at our farm in
Millbrook.&nbsp; I could clearly see it perched in the top of a nearby
spruce tree, apparently oblivious to my presence (there was another owl
answering about 500m away).&nbsp; This fellow cocked his tail smartly every
time he
called as well, which is the first time I've ever seen them do this.<br>
