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.
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.
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’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 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'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.
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'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
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
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
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.
"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
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 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
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?
This is called pishing, using mimic sounds to attract birds. “Because pishing or squeaking disrupts the natural behaviour of a bird, birding organisations consider it unethical to make excessive use of this method of attracting birds. Such organisations recommend that, once the bird has been viewed, the birder cease pishing and allow the bird to return to its natural behavior.” But you deliberately antagonize the owl with repeated pishing even after you saw him once…then he attacks the camera FOUL, SIR
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 :/
@@peacerebelgirl Then God said, “Let Us make mankind in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the livestock and over all the earth, and over every crawling thing that crawls on the earth.” Gen 1:26
Not ethical to use owl calls to lure them. There are other ways to find owls without manipulating and confusing them. The time they spend following a recording or fake call is time they could spend mating, hunting, taking care of young, etc... it's much more rewarding to observe them naturally anyways!! Please stop playing owl calls and encouraging others to do the same!
If you think this is bad, wait until you find out how other animals manipulate and at times hunt each other. It’s harmless. I hope everyone do this to enjoy these majestic animals.
@@dblood8529yeah well they do that cause that’s nature, they have to hunt. It’s nowhere the same thing as what this dude does only for his own enjoyment

Absolutely there was something spiritual happening with you and them.

They got a free concert!
Bro I can’t even get a date that fast
For The Love Of Crab Kind
GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR !!!
Don’t be so quick to blame yourself kiddo
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Haha It was like: "You tricked me! Piss off!"

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.
Playing this video made all of the owls around me go crazy, all at once. I was not expecting that! Very cool video!
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
Ha 69 likes
That was definitely one of the coolest things I've seen!
When that owl showed up at 42 seconds into the video, I almost fell out of my chair, I laugh so hard! awesome video!
That is awesome. Love calling owls this time of year. Thank you.
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

Really cool, they are such resilient animals and so curious. I had one land about 3 feet away from me the other day.
1:06 poor barred owl just about had a heart attack
They do attack. Warning - play this in your backyard at your own risk.
Well, that escalated quickly. I think he caught on to your trickery and got pissed.
I’ve got some Barred owls across the street on the hill, im playing this on a speaker. And they’re getting closer 🤣
Omg that's so cool! What a beautiful🦉
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
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!
If you pull up in a nice ride at the Scottsdale mall it kinda works the same way.
Bahahaha!! That's too funny.
The cutest species of owl
Omg he actually came and of course knocked your camera
It’s like the owl was saying “Come out of that blue tube, you bastard.”
Wow.. when it flew up while you were sitting at the bench is insane....
I placed a nesting box in the woods and attracted them to the nest using this same method. It sure works.

@@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.
That's SO cool!
Please don't do that, don't mess with owls , it's stressing and confusing them
I can get 2 owls most of the time just playing this twice
Beautiful little spot there.
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
0:02 A Barred Owl Call!
I want to do this!
I just had to go outside. Apparently my dog was having a few owls over and they were getting loud. People have work in the am
This is neat, but intrusive. Their calls are communication for a purpose. We shouldn't goad, disturb them for our amusement.
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.
Wow! That was amazingly fast!
Have seen barred owl at Uptown shopping centre where I work a couple times
Incredible
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!
"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
When i was growing up, i thought they were Bard Owls because of the way they hooted. But, they're Barred Owls.
That is soooooo cool.
Omg that is so cool.. Something about owls, they're just Majestic creatures.

Sounds like "Who cooks for you, who cooks for you all"
That last owl was not having it with your prank, or being on camera.
Would you please provide more detail about how to get the Peterson guide? Thanks
The good news, is they are breeding well here in NH
So the owl got catfished? 😊
Ok, one tried to snatch the dangling headphones I was carrying. It followed me around my neighborhood.
I call them but mostly at night is when I here them activate never had one come close like that yet
So for what reason were the owls barred? Had they gone & broken some rules, or something?.
🦉🚫 🤔
That was awesome!
What type of vocalization were you using? What did it mean to them?
Колико дуго чекаш да дођу?
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
The owlets sounds like a woman in terror screaming 😱. Almost called the police one time.
Very cool
There is one or a pair by my house. I am 100% going to do this.
How do u get that app thing to call the owls
What video or sound clips were you using?

it works anywhere with all owls.
Who cooks for you
Who cooks for y’all
How long did it initially take for one to show?
What’s the app called?
Is this legal?

merlin helps, you can probably find some on youtube with the season about to start
My Owl's finally came amazing they came last nigjt
I’ve actually got their calls down pretty well just using my voice. It attracts them at least 60% of the time.
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...
Oh ! haha, that was funny !
Would love to be where you are to experience all these owls.
Lol didn't like the camera 🦉🦉❤
Do it while you can because the Federal DNR has plans to bag 400k of them to preserve land for other owls.
surprise ending
Fantastic !!
If you do good on Earth, you will get to come back an Owl.
The camera man is still missing, persumed dead...
omg that was crazy
I think I have one here close to St. Louis
They are everywhere in St. Louis.
Did that owl get mad and attack the camera? Seems pretty tame for a wild owl.
Its not that their seemingly tame,,,its that they are an a predator they fear very little if anything in their world 😎
🦉

that owl was a hoot !
This is not great behavior, the owl is SO agitated...
"Is it live or is it Memorex?"
