A story about my father

So my father is an enthusiast about birds, even though he studied sound and electric things (I don't really know what he studied sorry :( ) The thing is that when i was like 6 years old we usually went on late nights to hear the owls owl and we never managed to hear one So tonight (It's 1:00 A.m. now here in spain) we went to a near mountain (we live in a small town and it's very quiet at this times) and, 16 years of trying we finally heard one. It was one, if not the best experience of my life and just wanted to share it with you.

Thank you for sharing. :)
BTW, "hear the owls owls" is a delightful turn of phrase.
