    Only the 3rd time ive captured an owl on camera in 11 years of running trail cams. I believe he is a great horned due to the size, but cant be sure (other option, barred). What do you guys think?

    Great Horned. They are around, but do not show their faces much. I would think a very rare catch for a trail camera.

    When we turkey hunt, it's not uncommon to call in 6-7 barred owls. But I've never seen or heard a great horned in the wild.

    Thanks guys. Owls were on my bucket list for this year. Still waiting for that bald eagle.

    Terrible picture, but what kind of owl does this look like? Took this during the summer with my cell phone on a property nearby the carcass cam. I actually saw this owl 2 or 3 times while checking cams in the same area.
