RFI Where are my owls?

["Val Curtis" <>]

Two weeks ago I returned to my home in Tonimbuk Rd, Gembrook, Victoria (70 k 
west of Melbourne GPO).
Every year for the past 5 years we have returned at the same time to 
Gembrook from our annual northerly migration and within two days or so we 
hear the Sooty Owl, Boobook Owl and later in the final days of October or 
early November we also hear the White-throated Nightjar. This year we have 
heard none of these and wonder if any Birding-Ausers have been out this way 
looking for owls? Our home is not far from Mortimer Reserve which is a 
favourite spot for 'owl searchers'.
I would be pleased if anybody who has been out this way owling would tell me 
if they have  seen or heard any Sooty Owls in the vicinity.
