The barred owl was out again tonight, so this time I got my camera and tripod out and managed to capture it on video:
A few days ago it was hooting quite a bit; I was hoping it would tonight, but it didn't. I have about 5 minutes more of footage that I'll put up here later.
The rest of the video (a bit more difficult to see as the sun was going down):

Backyard nature
Last weekend toward dusk the birds of the neighborhood were going nuts - they were definitely disturbed by something. That something turned out to be what we believe is a Barred Owl (thanks to my dad's keen observation for finding it)!
I was able to snap a few shots of it:
I saw it again on Monday after noticing the birds were in a frenzy again.
And under our porch in the front yard, we have a Eastern Phoebe nest:
I noticed today that the babies were popping their heads up and chirping ever so sweetly. I'm pretty sure we have another Eastern Phoebe nest in the backyard as well.
