All,
Last May I recorded this Ninox at my place in Samford SEQ. I heard it calling
while I was making dinner and thought wow that sounds like a Barking Owl...made
the recodings and played it for a few local mates. I was politely told, "nice
try, but southern boobooks also can sound like that". I get Southern Boobooks
most weeks, but never observed or heard them make this type of call before (or
since).
Since then however, a Barking Owls has been found about 5 k's away.
The recording is ML 189700 http://macaulaylibrary.org/audio/189700
This recording has now been questioned, rightfully so, by the lads at Cornell
and has been tentatively ID'ed as a female Barking Owl, so I am reaching out
for any feedback. Can Southern Boobooks sound like this?
Cheers,
Roger
