Observation details
Initially, I heard a single Great Horned Owl calling. I made several recordings of that bird's calls with a chorus of Katydids in the background over the next hour or so. As I was leaving, and no longer recording, I heard what seemed to be another Great Horned Owl calling in a higher pitch and slightly different vocalization. I returned and resumed recording, and heard two distinct Owls beginning a conversation. Initially, the first Owl would call, answered by the second. Soon they were performing an overlapping duet. Finally, they returned to a pattern of calls and responses, with the second Owl eventually sounding fainter as it apparently moved away.
