Great Grey Owl on Prince Edward Island? (1 Viewer)

[kirkanova]

Hello from PEI!

My cat brought this Owl to my attention today but I'm having trouble positively identifying it as I can't seem to find it on a list of birds for PEI. Just wondering if it's not usually here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's a Barred Owl!

Welcome! Nice find!

Thank you! It's great to be here!
I wondered that but in person it was very dark gray. It's perhaps the same one I've been chatting with for the last couple of years. Last year I heard a Hoot hoot hoot hahoow, but this year it's been hoot hoot hoot hoot hahoow!

My cat and it were having a staring contest. Haha

Hi kirkanova and a warm welcome to you from all the Staff and Moderators. I've moved your post to the ID forum, as I feel they're better placed to be able to help you there.

I'm sure you will enjoy it here and I look forward to hearing your news.
