I discovered there are A LOT of Great Horned Owls in the Salton Sea area of the Mohave Desert of southern California! I was able to spot and photograph 10 different Great Horned Owls in one day.
Interesting account on the top one in an abandoned barn in rural Westmorland, CA. So my friend was driving and was on the lookout for Burrowing Owls which were literally EVERYWHERE. We were driving by an abandoned barn about 100 feet off the road and said out loud, "Wouldn't it be something if there was an owl in there!"
As we are driving by it must be my brain being in owl facial recognition mode cuz through a broken out window, from the road, while we are driving by, think I see an owl up on one of the rafters.
We pull over and get out and cross a deep drainage ditch and approach the barn and low and behold, there are two Great Horned Owls inside.
