Subject: Re: [NatureNS] Which owl?
Hi, Jane,=20
I heard what I thought had to be a loon early this morning. It seemed to =
be travelling, one round of calls close and a second more distant. But =
no crows.
I went back to sleep and would not have remembered it if you hadn't sent =
out your email below.
Since I am a few blocks from you, it could have been the same bird.
Is there any chance you had a loon fly over and the crow fuss was =
coincidental, about something else?

Some of the Barred Owl calls having a hooting quality to them. They
are very open to urban areas as well. It might be one of these.
