Re: [cayugabirds-l] GH Owl Singing

2020-10-07 Thread Robin Cisne
Enlighten me:  I thought GHO courted in January.  If they are courting in
October, won't the females be brooding and then raising owlets in the
middle of winter?

Re: [cayugabirds-l] GH Owl Singing

2020-10-06 Thread Lisa
I heard what I assume was a crow taken out by an owl in the ravine tree tops 
behind my house this summer.  It was horribly slow and loud; seemed like a good 
10 minutes. I was surprised that no other crows came to its defense.

The crows would prefer they sit still hooting and not floating silently around

We’ve been hearing one and two Great-horned owls from Muriel street sounding 
like they’re over towards northeast elementary. Heard them at least 4 times in 
the last two weeks. Sounding like a male and female. Two times around 9 PM and 
two times in the early hours of morning around 3. Very neat.  Although I doubt 
the Crows agree that it’s neat.
