Owl hunting!

We went on a night hike with Dr. Mumme in search of owls. Sadly while we were hiking we didn't find any owls. So instead of wasting a perfect evening, we looked at the beautiful stars. The moment we got back to the dorms, something ironic happened. In the distince, we heard an owl hoot. So we walked acrossed the street and check in the woods for signs of an owl. Sure enough when Dr. Mumme let out a recording of a Barred owl hoot, we got a response. Using the recording, the owl was lured closer to our group. We all got to see him. He sat in a tree about ten feet away from our group. It was so cool and we all had a great end to our first full day.
