Hi, birders,
I made a recording on Friday standing roadside at El Monte County Park about 9:30am hoping to ID the very low-pitched "hooting" sound, in the owl or dove range, first heard at about 13 seconds. Merlin declines to make a suggestion, BirdNet suggests (at very low confidence levels) two owls we don't have here, and I only find one close match in the Peterson sound guide... for which I have even lower confidence!
I hope it *is* a bird, lol. I've posted it as a soundscape recording on this eBird list. Thanks for any help!
