Nice short-eared owl recording, Rich.   I made one last winter with an
MKH60 using my car as a blind.  The bird was fairly close by and  I had a
good recording level.   Unfortunately the bird was flying between me and a=

major state prison, and the recording is dominated by the prison's
ventilation system.  The noise is too broad band to filter without damaging=

the owl's call to some degree.  A shame.
