Comment to Howling Neos

Our males will howl at night when the girls are "right on." The experienced males make little noise, but do a lot more markinng and sniffing. What is interesting though is every morning almost exactly one hour before sunrise the whole lot (males and females) have a song for about 5 minutes. One starts and the others join in one by one. Each has a unique howl and it is funny listening to young puppies learn to do so. We have never been able to work out why they do this = but the sound certainly carries a long way - especially on frosty winte mornings. Nancy Keck
