Dear Leda Beth and others:

      I don't think I've ever called in Barn Owls on rainy nights or mornings, 
but in decent weather I've had my greatest success with squeaking (lips againt 
the back of the hand).  Great Horneds also respond to squeaking (also to calls 
of small owls).  It has been recommended that when you squeak, whistle or 
whatever, you keep your arm up, as people have been struck by owls.  I've 
never had a Barn Owl come that close, but I've been dive-bombed by a Great 
Horned who thougth my Pygmy Owl imitiation was damn fine and was looking for a 
meal.  If you use tapes, of course, they'll hit your speaker, not your face.

      					Bill
