I've been hearing a nocturnal bird near my home for a month now and suspected 
some sort of owl. All week a very large owl has been flying down and landing 
under the pine trees that line my property. Tonight I had binocs ready and have 
verified its a Great Horned Owl. I just searched the internet and found the 
exact nocturnal shrieking sound that its been making. Just wanted to share. I'm 
very excited as I have always loved owls but they are hard to spot.
