Strix varia
Please forgive the bad quality. It was super humid and dark. We found this owl by following it's hoarse sounding screech. I can't figure out if it's a barred owl or a short-eared owl. It was rather fearless. At one point it landed about 3 feet in front of my son. It also let us get relatively close.
