Yeah...Had snow yesterday, but it melted off...Still cold as heck..Owls only come back when the mice come back above ground..so I am hopeful...

Those great horned owls do not migrate, even in your part of Minnesota.  Probably hooting at an interloper in their territory.  He probably has a mate on eggs right now, close to hatching!  He's protecting his hunting territory, the territory where he is feeding his wife and kids!
