Woohoo-heyhey
Never thought we would hear a Great Horned Owl on our roof!
Not sure if this has any relation to the full moon, but the bright moonlight was definitely helpful to us in spotting the owl in the dark. I do wonder if it has found its way here as our neighborhood has been quite popular with hawks (see references) - many times, I have seen them swoop down to a prize catch.
Interesting how the owl has returned again night after night.

Not sure if it's the same one from a few nights ago (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/63745992). This time round, we could see some white on its chest.

On a nearby telegraph pole. Very distinctive silhouette - ears were standing, tail cocking up while rocking forward and backward several times
