It's owl time! We have heard Great Horned Owls begin hooting this time of year. Even though they begin nesting in winter, it's not too early for them to begin their courtship and territorial behavior. They call most in early evening and pre-dawn hours. The male usually calls more than the female. Her hoots are shorter and higher-pitched than those of the male even though she is a larger bird. Listen for them now.
