Screech Owl

Our friends recently told us they had a screech owl roaming around near their house. Since I was up at 5am with nothing on today's agenda, I packed up and headed over to their house. We arrived just after 7am and were there less than 5 minutes before we found him/her. This is the first photo I took.

Looks to me to be a great horned owl. How big was the bird? Smaller than a crow (and chunkier) = screech owl; much larger than a crow = great horned owl. Nice photo!
