Fool owls...

 


...made me frustrated once again. I did the second fruitless owl trip this year, I had planned to listen hooting of Eurasian Eagle Owls (Bubo bubo) and Tawny Owls (Strix aluco). Locations were supposed to be 100% sure, as just one evening before other birdwatchers had heard there 3 Eurasian Eagle Owls and 1 Tawny Owl. But today they were all mute, although the weather was exactly the same. Well, luckily the starry sky was beautiful and I managed to see couple of shooting stars.

But the logic of owls is totally incomprehensible, at least what comes to hooting times...
