Thank you! Definitely sounds like a barred owl. And I am very jealous that you have it residing near you! A great subject for photos. Maybe s/he will find a mate and have chicks nearby.


We are planning a nest box this Fall.

Excellent! What a great series of shots Tim! Thanks for sharing them.


Thanx for viewing! I am still somewhat in dis-belief over this particular owl’s seeming attraction to us and our yard. Three evenings in a row this owl sits in trees no more than 20 or so feet away and up no more than 10 feet. Looking for rats- great for us!

Great Spotted Owl photo. Can really see the difference between the Barred and Spotted Owls comparing the two photos.

Just completed a task, sitting watching over our ducks when this Hoot Owl descended on a tree about 22 feet from where we were sitting. This was just before 4PM PDT. I did not have a camera only my cell so my wife-who is much speedier afoot than me nowadays-went for my Z9 with 500pF attached.

While we watched, a rat appeared to the bird's left-our right in some salal and blackberry. This birds finally flew off after 6 PM PDT! It stayed over two hours on three different perches. Needless to say, I took over 1300 images!

My wife and I pointed out the rat to the owl and made sure the bird knew we wanted that damn rat gone!

The owl perched for an hour on our dog run-watching and waiting for the rat to show itself.

After diving on the rat, the owl seemed stuck so I went around to backside off our run area to free the bird. Not necessary. I showed him a clear path through the blackberry and it took it!

I apologize in advance of any who may be upset over the dead rat image.

Download and enjoy!
