The owls most commonly seen are Barred Owls. They are more active during the day than the other owls, so this contributes to more sightings of this amazing bird.
Headwaters Park is also home to Great Horned Owls, which are noticeably larger than the Barred Owls, and also home to Screech Owls, which are a very small owl by comparison.
I always recommend the website All About Birds for comprehensive bird information.
