Thomas J. Valentino recorded this sound back in the 1930s, and it used to be part of the Major Records/Valentino Sound Effects Library in 1940. In 1968, it appeared in the Valentino library.
It's a recording of a Great Horned Owl hooting, and is the same as Valentino Owl Hoots & Clucks, BIRD, OWL - SINGLE OWL HOOTS, ANIMAL, Owl Hoot Classic TE013201 on The Edge Edition Volume 1, and Animals - Birds - Owl on the Soundelux Sound Effects Library. It's nearly identical to but shouldn't be confused with BIRD, OWL - CALLING, ANIMAL 01, which is on The General Series 6000 Sound Effects Library. A very brief excerpt from this is available on its own on The Premiere Edition Volume 9 library, known as Bird Owl Hoot PE914102.
