Hi Ethan, All, I recorded this possible Barn Owl on May 1 of last year. No Barn Owls occur in the area in which it was recorded (so presumably a migrant), but it does sound very good for this species in my opinion and definitely has a similar rising inflection. Great Horned is also a possibility and nests nearby but I think Barn fits this call better (more of a "white noise" feel and hissing quality). Thoughts welcome on this one.
