What a fabulous course! It's encouraging me to investigate more of what eBird has to offer. I'm so thankful to have the chance to listen to owls who live halfway across the world, ones I'll never get to hear in real life. I've been on a few Owl Prowls which mostly did not find any owls... but it's always so much fun to go with like-minded people, because you never know if this will be the time 5 or 6 owls will show up! A few years ago I did see an owl swoop down my street in the city, on a winter night. I don't know if it was during the snowy owl irruption year. It was a white owl, though. They're just the most fascinating birds!
