I used to play native American flute, one night l was out playing and at least half a dozen screech owls showed up in the trees around me. I couldn't tell if they were agitated or just happy to talk to me. It was a great experience.
I sit quietly in the woods and can count on at least one owl just sitting across from me, just observing. They are so curious they can't help it. Also something spiritual about having owls join you. Great Horned owl is my spirit animal but they all seem to locate me. Always incredible.
I call in Barred Owls once in awhile with my bluetooth speaker, its spring here in New Hampshire and the owls have been quite active. Last Saturday I tried to call them in and got quite the surprise when 7 or 8 all swarmed where I was by the firepit. They were all around me with a few very close watching me and they were all hollering loudly, it was an awesome experience and scary at the same time with them swooping over my head trying to find the source of the calls, I’ll definitely have to record them next time…👍
I went out to walk dogs The squirrels were screaming in all directions As we walked an owl ? Barn or horned flew over my head then away The squirrels went silent
I love how barred owls are so active during the day. Most owls sneak around at night and you just don’t see them. So many more chances of seeing and interacting with the barred owl since they’re often awake at the same time we were! 🦉
Normal feeling when you hear another individual of your specie call in your territory for hours. This barred owl was hella confused and probably terrifed at the idea of having to tussle with another barred owl, or it was chasing a non-existing mate. Either way, it's pretty annoying shit. Totally understand why the Barred Owl would attack the closest source of the sound that's been taking all its energy and time.
Made the mistake of imitating their call one night. I got an unexpected answer from three of them at once. Two hooted back but the third one made noises like cackling lunatic laughing and hooting at the same time. It was the craziest thing i have ever heard. I quickly ducked inside because it sounded like it was mad.
I hear them at dusk and they do that dooky noise and my cat dances around and makes tittering noises. The barred owls around my house are spectacular and regal.
I do this every week and it has never failed. Blows my mind how many friggin owls live around me . I have 6or more show up guaranteed within 3min max !!!. Works kickass for turkeys & Coyote too. Seriously it's so effective it's as close to casting a Hogwarts spell as possible 😀 impresses my company every time
I’m afraid to call the pair here- will that make them think they have rivals? I’m afraid they’d leave after all these years. I hear them EVERY night -clockwork. SO vocal!! I love it!! Great vid- so cool to finally see them calling and not just hear !
I've played their calls outside on my porch and within minutes I hear one or two in the trees! I hear them a lot in the morning while getting ready for work.
I have some owls in the woods near by and I juat called them. There's at least 3. Amd they are cutting up!! Love it!!! One just flew over as I was typing thise
I'm visiting my fiance up in Charlotte and I came outside for a smoke just now it's about 20 after midnight. And I heard a barred owl, and I thought I heard one answering in the distance I played this video both of them came and landed on top of the car in the driveway staring at me. Then when I turned on my video to record them the light scared them away but very cool thanks for the vid
It's thinking, that's a strange looking owl. Poor guy so confused probably. Still neat to see them. Saw one on my fence not too long ago, just hanging out.
I once sat down outside my house, played owl noises through a speaker. No owl or anything showed up, then 30 minutes of owl noises playing a pigeon turned up. He just sat there then flew away. So I gave up. There are normally lots of owls around my suburb
yeah that'd be a fucking great idea! Good shit dude, let's tell everybody they can literally draw an owl from it's normal routine and spend hours messing around with it for their own enjoyment!! :D Who needs energy right ? All animals can waste their time chasing a ghost and wasting vital energy!! You should also tell them to use this strategy in the spring!! That way you can stop them from feeding their young and have a HECK OF A BLAST :D !!!!
I love birds like that. I think owls are coolest birds ever. I heard them when I window open at and they beautiful birds on plants. Sometimes I watch him hunt and it’s pretty cool to watch how they know and where to go. sometimes I put a speaker outside make owl noises. It’s pretty quiet respond back.
I scrolled down in amazement seeing nothing but positive comments. I’m amazed that yours is the first negative one I’ve seen. In the birding communities I’ve known this man would be despised - and I mean despised - for such unethical behavior.
It surely does I sat my speaker in the yard the other night and used the app and I had one in about 5 or 10 min also worked on great horned owls as well I got a male and a female great horned in the yard the other night calling back to each other
@@colemaund608 yes it does, but I just heard that when they come to the call they leave their nests unattended and predators take advantage. So I am not going to do it again. Don’t want a raccoon to end up taking their babies while they are out trying to protect their territory. 👍🏻👍🏻
They have been here last couple of years a bit. 2 nights ago right in the back. I heard them in the house and sure enough right behind our fence. I have a recording and will try tonight…🦉strange sounds. Thanks
Omg that is so cool.. Something about owls, they're just Majestic creatures. So, how long did it take for the owl to come and was he the only one? Will multiple owls converge on the same spot or will they fight it out? And is that a mating call or? That owl seemed very interested, so I'm guessing it's not an attack call or danger call...
I had to look this up because I've been mimicking the sounds of owls around my property and have had Another successful attempt, figured I'd look into it more
"Yo who's on my turf?... Dis my block, bruh!!!.... I'LL TEAR YOU INTO LITTLE ........ Oh........ Human trickery..... Again... *sighs* Yes i know i'm beautiful, but can you please hurry up and take a picture?... I have a tree to defend and mates to attract" This video is cute lol
did you just fucking said the man is patient ? The dude literally calls wild owls with a speaker. That's the least patient way to observe owls and any wildlife for that matter unless it is used for academic purposes. That's just being lazy and wasting the owl's time and energy. This was even filmed in may when they feed their youngs. This parent probably left the nest for god knows how long to basically chase a ghost.
@@shadowrslayerfr, i can’t believe how many people are seeing this as a positive thing and basically encouraging more people to do it, this causes more harm than good to owls for their selfish desire to see them up close :/
Not to toot my own horn but I confused a barred owl for a good long time by calling back to it.(Quebec cantly Miller cottage honeymoon) We talked for maybe 30 mins back and forth Whoooooo-with a rolled R Simple
Thank you for this you may have saved me from a bad situation as I keep telling my wife I'm gonna call one up..... and I've explained to her that they are capable of going right to where the sound is originating....... but just as an instinctive and observation based knowledge, little more than anecdotal evidence.... But to see it in person actually happen, not to a mouse or squirrel or other owl, but actually to the speaker tells me not to use my phone especially at night.... We are surrounded by barred owls and I have talked to them for years, just never had pull up on me that close yet...... was that in the wild wild or have you been with them a while?
I literally just heard one of these, last night!!!!!! I was taking my dog out, before going to bed, so that he could go to the bathroom. My dog being part beagle, I’m sure he wanted to investigate what the hell that sound was lol
I used to play native American flute, one night l was out playing and at least half a dozen screech owls showed up in the trees around me. I couldn't tell if they were agitated or just happy to talk to me. It was a great experience.
Absolutely there was something spiritual happening with you and them.

This has been a message brought to by the letter "M" as in: Missed opportunity for the best owl interaction video of all time!!
Exactly what happens!!! Amazing to witness 👏
I went out to walk dogs
The squirrels were screaming in all directions
As we walked an owl ? Barn or horned flew over my head then away
The squirrels went silent
Whoaaaaa!!!! He actually came!!!! I’ve been getting A LOTTTTTTTT or OWL activity!!!! It feels so exciting!!!!!’n
That’s what she said
I did the exact same thing this week and two came in! As long as they know you don't see them they come pretty close

I've used your calls for 3yrs. And it brings em in every time! Thanks!

2:32 I don’t know what that owl was feeling when it attacked the camera, but it was a mood.
Haha It was like: "You tricked me! Piss off!"

It was just trying to perch on it but it fell over.
it's been catfished

They do attack. Warning - play this in your backyard at your own risk.
I did this in my backyard with a Bluetooth speaker... I had 4 of them within 5 min lol
Where do you live? I’m in Massachusetts
Super cool
That was definitely one of the coolest things I've seen!
Playing this video made all of the owls around me go crazy, all at once. I was not expecting that! Very cool video!
I do this every week and it has never failed. Blows my mind how many friggin owls live around me . I have 6or more show up guaranteed within 3min max !!!.
Works kickass for turkeys & Coyote too.

Да ли ради поноћи?
Hmmm.... I have coyote here, I might call them in for a lead party.
That is awesome. Love calling owls this time of year. Thank you.
When that owl showed up at 42 seconds into the video, I almost fell out of my chair, I laugh so hard! awesome video!
I’m afraid to call the pair here- will that make them think they have rivals? I’m afraid they’d leave after all these years. I hear them EVERY night -clockwork. SO vocal!! I love it!! Great vid- so cool to finally see them calling and not just hear !
They usually stay within a few mile range of the same area their whole life
Did you know they nest inside trees with woodpecker holes. That’s how I try to figure out where they are.
Good question ! I did this the other night but stopped bec I was afraid I was creating more harm than good.
I've played their calls outside on my porch and within minutes I hear one or two in the trees! I hear them a lot in the morning while getting ready for work.
This was AWESOME !!!! Thank you so much for sharing !
You made that owl real mad !! LOL !!!!!!!
2:12 "Yea? Whadda want?? C'mon pal, I ain't got all night here."
I tried this and had a barred owl come within a minute! Such a cool experience! I’ve heard them for years and only saw one once before.
Ahahaha technology at its best. Man got the whole hood hooting now
i have called them from my patio and two of them did a fly by within about eight feet of me. It was so awesome
I have some owls in the woods near by and I juat called them. There's at least 3. Amd they are cutting up!! Love it!!! One just flew over as I was typing thise
Omg that's so cool! What a beautiful🦉
1:06 poor barred owl just about had a heart attack
Really cool, they are such resilient animals and so curious. I had one land about 3 feet away from me the other day.

I'm in Greensboro nc and it works every time!!!!
I’ve got some Barred owls across the street on the hill, im playing this on a speaker. And they’re getting closer 🤣
Amazing one landed right near you, once in a lifetime chance, had one nearly fly into the window of vehicle once. Amazing.
Incredible
Well, that escalated quickly. I think he caught on to your trickery and got pissed.
This video should be seen by everyone. Outstanding job sir.

This is neat, but intrusive. Their calls are communication for a purpose. We shouldn't goad, disturb them for our amusement.

Lmao the ending when it attacks the camera.
It couldn't have ended any better..I really laughed,too!
Bro got catfished 😂
That was awesome!
This was really cool! One of these guys hangs out in the area i call for wolves, might try to call one of these in next time!
Wow.. when it flew up while you were sitting at the bench is insane....
I hear these at night near my home in West Michigan
Me too in New Hampshire!
Family up in N W Michigan, beautiful place!!!
Me too here on east coast!
Me too in the U.P. Michigan
Me too here in Connecticut
0:02 A Barred Owl Call!
Owl’s getting catfished
Omg he actually came and of course knocked your camera
Would you please provide more detail about how to get the Peterson guide? Thanks
Wow! That was amazingly fast!
So cute!
I placed a nesting box in the woods and attracted them to the nest using this same method. It sure works.
It surely does I sat my speaker in the yard the other night and used the app and I had one in about 5 or 10 min also worked on great horned owls as well I got a male and a female great horned in the yard the other night calling back to each other

@@Rob_2020 yeah I’ve given it a rest myself I just love to see them and hear them
@@colemaund608 i don’t blame you, they are amazing creatures. Stay safe.
I had one within 4 minutes!! But that app is discontinued.
I can get 2 owls most of the time just playing this twice
That is soooooo cool.
It’s like the owl was saying “Come out of that blue tube, you bastard.”
What video or sound clips were you using?
"You made fly all the way over here for This?! This??!! Take that!"
What type of vocalization were you using? What did it mean to them?
They have been here last couple of years a bit. 2 nights ago right in the back. I heard them in the house and sure enough right behind our fence. I have a recording and will try tonight…🦉strange sounds. Thanks
Awesome - thanks for sharing. I’ve been trying to find a good quality recording to do the same. Great video
How long did it initially take for one to show?
If you pull up in a nice ride at the Scottsdale mall it kinda works the same way.
Bahahaha!! That's too funny.
How do u get that app thing to call the owls
Omg that is so cool.. Something about owls, they're just Majestic creatures.

I want to do this!
Very cool
Heard one in my front yard a few nights ago - Victoria, BC
What’s the app called?
Hey buddy I Heard you needed me- what’s this blue thing?
I have a pair that lives across the street from me along the nehalem river. ❤ from pnw oregon
Have seen barred owl at Uptown shopping centre where I work a couple times
I call them but mostly at night is when I here them activate never had one come close like that yet
Cool 🦌🦉
That last owl was not having it with your prank, or being on camera.
very cool
What app or where do you get the call sounds?
merlin helps, you can probably find some on youtube with the season about to start
That was cool
Too cool
This is amazing thank you
I had to look this up because I've been mimicking the sounds of owls around my property and have had Another successful attempt, figured I'd look into it more
That owl is going to be very upset when it finds out that it's coming from a speaker....there will be hell to pay, I tell you...
"Yo who's on my turf?... Dis my block, bruh!!!.... I'LL TEAR YOU INTO LITTLE ........ Oh........ Human trickery..... Again... *sighs* Yes i know i'm beautiful, but can you please hurry up and take a picture?... I have a tree to defend and mates to attract"

Whoooooo-with a rolled R
Simple
Is this legal?
Hey Brad,That’s very cool, thanks for the video! Can you tell me what kind of speaker you’re using?
Thanks!
it's a JBL
When is a good time to call them? Time of year and time if night?
I call them around dusk
Sounds like "Who cooks for you, who cooks for you all"
When i was growing up, i thought they were Bard Owls because of the way they hooted. But, they're Barred Owls.
That would definitely have the toms gobbling
Thank you for this you may have saved me from a bad situation as I keep telling my wife I'm gonna call one up..... and I've explained to her that they are capable of going right to where the sound is originating....... but just as an instinctive and observation based knowledge, little more than anecdotal evidence....

it works anywhere with all owls.
That owl call near the end sounds like my last date about to hurl in the toilet from too many margeritas
Yes, raptors can be sensitive to margeritas. Next time you take your owl on a date, stick with daiquiris... everyone wins!
I literally just heard one of these, last night!!!!!! I was taking my dog out, before going to bed, so that he could go to the bathroom. My dog being part beagle, I’m sure he wanted to investigate what the hell that sound was lol
Oh ! haha, that was funny !
You have no idea how exciting it is when you're turkey hunting and you use the owl locator and get about 7 or 8 owls come in and start caterwauling.
You mean caterpaulting? Like when you catch them and get to launch them
You tempted him with poon, but there was no poon
