It was about 82°F degrees here in southern South Carolina today and
humid so AC was required. In the late afternoon the winds picked up and
a cold front blew in. The temps have dropped drastically and wow, no
need for AC. I've got the screened patio door and some other windows
open. A very nice cross breeze. Quite pleasant!
I'm hearing an Owl. I cannot tell what kind of an Owl. I've never
actually seen an Owl where I live. It's calling from the trees across a
golf course behind my house. I did not hear a return call so he moved
on. But surely he must be nesting someplace nearby for the night?
Perhaps I'll hear him calling again after he's done hunting for food.
I'm hoping he'll hear an answering call. The weather is clear but it's
a waning moon so visibility of prey on the ground is likely difficult.
I love being able to have the windows open and hear the night birds
calling. Often there are a number of them. For now, things are silent.
I hear only the wind. Even the bugs and peepers (tiny frogs) are
silent. Hmmm.
Maybe the Owl will call again. I'm wondering why all of a sudden
everyting outside is silent.

Just guessing... but could be Barred or Great Horned Owl. They make the
classic "hoot" sounds attributed to owls. Some recordings, info on these
owls here:
