I came face to face with one of these in Fish Creek a little while ago. If it hadn't swivelled its head I would have missed it as it was so well camouflaged.
I find they're easy to spot in the winter when there's alot of hoar frost.

Does he ever Hoot ?
I was umpiring and a owl landed behind the right fielder on a fence post. It was a pretty cool site but man it started hooting and it was louder than crap!!

Once in a while. It's pretty loud though. Coyotes are louder
Owls scare the crap out of me. They're huge, angry lookin' and are just generally creepy. They come out mostly at night, make weird noises and can twist their head all the way around. I'd probably be more scared of being up close to an owl than any other animal, hate 'em.
That's awesome. I've been trying to get pictures of it in flight...but my camera can't catch its wings nicely
More pictures I caught (Sorry the owls are small. I didn't want to get to close to them and scare them off). Top two were with flash and the bottom one was without.
