Robin,
    Try this--though it doesn't sound like an alarm call:

  ...and let us know!

  Hi

  Does anyone know of where I might be able to locate a recording of a 
  Long-eared Owl, in particular a contact or alarm call?   Anyone have any 
  suggestions as to what may be making a call I've heard 3 times in the last 
  week around my house?  I live just off Beulah Rd near Manchester Lakes 
  shopping center in Alexandria, VA.  This call is a raspy bark-like sound 
  (very similar to the Short-eared Owl calls I've heard at Bombay Hook), 
  repeated 3 times in a series.  I've heard it between 10:30 and 11:30 at 
  night.  Sounds vaguely like a Green Heron squawk or Pheasant, only not as 
  loud, raspy, or as long.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks

  Robin
  Alexandria, VA
