I always like to hear them at night, and the last time I heard one it sounded like a big one, maybe a Great Horned Owl. The one we saw was huge, so I am guessing that is what it was.

I have never seen an owl in the wild, but one morning, while I was walking Penny, I observed a huge red-tailed hawk making a fine meal out of an unlucky squirrel.
We stood and watched quietly, and the hawk gave us a “look”, and then calmly finished his meal before taking off.
