rl-type call.
Thanks Rip.=20
After listining to the owls on the Peterson Western Bird Songs
CD, I had pretty much narowed it down to either the Barred Owl
or the Spotted Owl. On the CD the Barred Owl has a "twirl" to its
call but not the spotted. Martyn sounded pretty confident about it
being a Barred Owl, but from yours and John's comments my
recording did not give enough to make a positive identification. I
will describe it more in my next post.
