When we got out of the truck Nastasia pointed out multiple Greet Horned Owls calling! I followed the hooting to the west Hess Village parking lot. There were 2 females and 1 male hooting to each other across campus! The female and male were hooting to each other from a top mature spruce trees in Hess Village complex, their white throats expanding with each vocalization. The other female was hooting from the woods towards West Ridge. A lady got out of her car and instantly heard the owl. “Did you hear that? What’s that?” She asked her friends. I pointed out the big female owl on the tree top. I told her that females have higher voices and males’ are lower. She was extremely excited to be witnessing this conversation. She pointed toward where the male was calling. “Is it right there?” Sure enough, there he was. I stood beneath his tree to get more recordings and got to see him take off from his perch. I could see that the center of his belly was white and he had dark bars on the flanks. Later Nastasia and I went to relocate the owls. They had flown from their Hess Village perches. We found the female hooting from the tower on top of Bartlett dorms. She flew off toward the male calling by the Chancellor’s House. Following their singing, we found both hooting to each other from trees some 50 feet apart or so by the Chancellor’s House. After some good views of the male, we left them to give some peace and privacy. Before I went inside I did hear one owl screech. I usually associate that with juvenile owls, but I think adults do it too.
