Hi Owlman,
That was a great video. Here's what I heard: Canada geese, flicker, robin, eastern bluebird, and downy woodpecker drumming (and some frogs at the very end--spring peepers?)
Was it the adult owl or little owl making those little hooting sounds?

Hi Owlman,

Beautiful video, thanks for posting it. I could only distinguish four calls. My guesses: 1st = Canada Geese, 2nd - Pilated Woodpecker, and 3rd - GHO
The 4th in there somewhere - unknown. :)

hi owlman.
Well I got about everything stacey said..Canada geese, the owl sounded a bit strange...I thought it was a flicker too. I thought I heard a robin yelling but then changed my mind to some other woods loving bird that I don't know!! Wish I was better at this.
good challenge!!
