Aidan B Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 (edited) Right now at Shoshone in San Bernardino county. I'm trying to sleep and this bird keeps calling right outside my tent, and it's bugging me that I can't decide what it is. Thinking maybe a American Coot or possibly a Long-eared Owl.

Avery Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 (edited) Sounds very close to Spotted Owl calls on Merlin. Edited May 27 by Avery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan B Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 I'm pretty sure it's a Coot, as it's light out now and it's still singing. I can say with confidence it's not a SPOW, I'm very familiar with their calls and that would be an absolutely crazy bird to have in Death Valley! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan B Posted May 28 Author Share Posted May 28 I can say with 100% confidence this was a Coot, and a white-fronted one at that! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
