No owl sounds.

It is early.  I feel that this will not be the place for the owl sound
event like it is for watching.
There have been reports of vocalizations but not like the longer
mating call on breeding territory.

I will report when I start to hear territory calls as I need Borial
Owl and those seem to be neighbors with the Greys.

We did get a really good recording of a Red-breasted Nuthatch picking
a fight with a Great Grey Owl.  And we did see plenty of owls they
were just quiet.  Also got a great video of snow stacked up on the top
of a resting owls head during the snowstorm.
