Hello all,
My first encounter with this neat owl was while fishing at night on the north
shore of Coal & Candle Creek in Ku-ring-gai NP. I have since heard or seen
them at Crookwell ,Stannix Park, three times in Kakadu NP. and , I strongly
suspect, last week. As I no longer sleep well I often spend hours listening
for night birds ,and heard the distinctive call about 0320 on Thursday 12th
July, o7.
The calls appeared to come from an area on the western slope of Red Hill which
is a couple of K's north of Beacon Hill , in the northern Sydney suburb of
French's Forest . I only report this unsubstantiated incident because of the
current interest . Some years ago a Sydney newspaper carried a report
headlined "The Screaming Woman Of French's Forest", an owl was seen in the
vicinity
