Oakland Owl Question
Joel Denney
There's been a visiting owl the last 2 nights here in Maxwell Park, a rarity in my experience of 25 years here. (Here = the foothill just northwest of Mills College, west the junction of highways 580 & 13, east Oakland). I'd like to know what is. My partner recorded it. Please advise where to post the .wav file so I can link to it here. In the meantime, what "night bird" in this area sounds like (but of course is not) a Northern Spotted Owl?

There had been a Great Horned Owl near there last month. We are near Kansas and Maple and heard it several nights, as did Marcus.

Just turn it into a small video file, standard def, 720x 480 and post it on youtube and send the link to the group. This is what I recorded October 1 in the Laurel https://youtu.be/cJUs-BsczIE If you are still having trouble. Email me. I will send you a link for you to deposit the file and post it on youtube for you Marcus Pun scrod2000@... Video Editor / Producer/Editor / CameraC: 510-384-8085 | H: 510-530-2507 Oakland, CA

Approx. location of owl in Maxwell Park? It's a tolerably big area. Thanks! Raleigh

Yep - Bev & Marcus nailed it. Thank you both. My partner can't remember why she dismissed whatever clip of a GHO she found last night, but Marcus' youtube clip is a higher pitched version of the same call. joel

Sounded like the guy was approx between Brookdale/Fleming; Maxwell/Cole. Not heard last night.
