I was out side at about 9.30 tonight and heard an owl calling. It was a call I had not heard before. Two notes, the second slightly different to the first. "Whoo who" or something similar repeated about 15 sec intervals.

I rang Martin Butterfield who lives about 10km East of me. I described the call and he said "almost certainly a Powerful Owl".

I then looked up Pizzey and sure enough the description of the call fitted.

Thanks for the assistance Martin. I am so pleased with this record, the first for me at my home patch.
