Description
Barred Owl by Sabrina K. Wheeler
This is barred owl image was captured at Buschman Park, in Port Orange, Florida. Buschman Park is a beautiful 30 acre neighborhood park and is also a Halifax River Audubon Bird Sanctuary. As I arrived at the park I heard its easily recognizable call off in the distance. Having practiced this call and been successful many times before, I returned the hoot, hoping to call it in closer, "Who cooks for you, who cooks for you all." After a bit of back and forth communication I determined it was likely a male as it began adding loud threatening rasping hisses and clacks at the end of its call the closer it came. Finally, it silently swooped past me and then quieted down on a large oak tree before realizing it was me and not another male intruder.
