I have seen two Great Horned Owls and one Eastern Screech Owl in the wild. I'm in the lower Hudson Valley of NY.  The Screech Owl was sitting on my driveway railing when I pulled in one night and stayed there even when I parked next to it. It only flew away when my door accidentally hit the railing (oops). Since then, I've heard at least one in the backyard every month or so.
