The tawny owl's call of "twit twoo" is famous, consisting of a call (usually by a female, but sometimes a male) of "twit" answered by a male with a "twoo". The amount of dumb jokes about owl wives calling their husbands "twit" and the husband going, "t-who?" is staggering.

Hi Ken,
Sorry for the re-tardiness. I was in a meeting of sorts. If its ok Im gonna swing by with a truck full of money.
