Greetings:

Slow night on the PCT-L and I'm watching a re-run of  "My Cousin Vinnie" as
I'm working on a project. And there was this Screech  Owl in the movie that
Vinnie tried to shoot - and missed. Anyway, it  reminded me of a night I
spent at Hawk Camp in the Marin Headlands. At  about eleven, an hour or so
after I got to sleep, an owl let go with the  most horrible sound I've ever
heard. LOUD. About 15 feet away. It was on  the ground and was making a
strange sound with its wings, as well. It took  all the nerve I had to look
out the tent to see what was going on. That was  the scariest sound I've
heard while sleeping on the ground. What's  yours?
