[EBB Sightings] Great Horned Owls at Lake Del Valle

My 5 year old son and I were camping at Lake Del Valle this week.  On
Wednesday evening, as we sat quietly by the creek, two Great Horned Owls
flew in and landed in the trees just across from us.  We watched them for a
while and listened to their calls.  After about 5 - 10 minutes, the male
flew over and mounted the female.  After mating, they flew off down the
creek.

I woke up to hear their calls a few times throughout the nights, too.

Cheers,
Willow & Lazuli
