In my opinion, no other owl has better “hooting” than the Great Horned Owl. Males give deep, low, booming sounds - “Hoo-hoo hooooo hoo-hoo” - which can be heard several miles away at night.
Females also hoot, but the calls are noticeably higher pitched than males since they have a smaller syrinx. Breeding pairs often perform a duet back and forth, which can be heard in this recording!
The BEST time to hear Great Horned Owl sounds is at night during late fall or early winter. This is when they are setting up territories and courting mates.
You should be able to hear Great Horned Owls no matter where you live. They are widespread and found almost everywhere in North America!
In addition to hooting, Great Horned Owls make a wide variety of other noises, including screams, growls, barks, coos, beak snapping, shrieks, and whistles.
