Wooooo! Give yourself goosepimples with the sound a graveyard tawny owl
Forget witches and ghosts, this spooky Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ recording of Strix aluco - our tawny owl - in a night-time graveyard is enough to chill your bones. Their plaintive cry and dark feathers ringing the face make this particular owl distinctive. And listen out for the tolling of midnight!
This image of the tawny owl was captured courtesy of Dean Eades, BirdMad.
