Great Horned Owls

Last night I took this picture on our evening walk around Cape Haze.  There is something so hauntingly beautiful about the sounds of these owls.  Their calls touch your very soul.  It fills up the night air with a feeling of something more, something yet to come.  It feels like a sound of Fall.  Just like leaves crunching underfoot, or drifting slowly down and landing lightly on the earth….ahh… the sounds of Fall.  Perhaps that is why I love hearing their calls.  Fall is my absolutely favorite time of the year, and it’s almost here!
