A week ago in my back yard I had an owl calling during the early morning -
4 am'ish.
Sounded like a Great Horn Owl.
I had not hear any owl calling during the week.
I did mention the fact to a few birders in passing as cool event and a
possible new yard bird.
Tonight a Great Horn Owl began calling at 7:15 pm.
I was in the garage with the door open.
The call was loud, so I called back, we had a great conversation ( the owl
and I ).
This kept up to 7:40.
There are many older very tall trees in this area, still holding their
leaves.
I could not locate the bird.
The Owl is active in the 1200 block of Ridgewood Rd, Pleasanton 94566.
Also at 8 am today over my home there was a fly by of three Band-Talied
Pigeons.
On Friday 11am in Pleasanton near Bernal Ave and HY680 there was a fly by
group of 15 Band-tailed Pigeons.
Everyone have a good week :).

It is more fun to arrive at a conclusion than to justify it
