Pygmy-Owl Confusion

from Chipmunks & squirrels – Earbirding Hosted by Nathan Pieplow

On 12 January 2009, my friend Andrew Spencer recorded an unseen creature on Chews Ridge in Monterey County, California. To my ear it sounds like a Northern Pygmy-Owl, but a few things about this and Doug Von Gausig's recording are strange. Are they representatives of an anomalous local dialect? Or of a different type of vocalization than the primary song? Are they not even pygmy-owls at all?
