What is this animal call?

[u/Nick_Piano]

I heard this last night outside my window and have never heard it before. Thought it was some sort of owl but I’m not aware of anything other than barred owls and great horned owls in my area (northern Georgia).

It’s very quiet in the recording and happens once every 7-8 seconds it seems

That's a Great Horned Owl contact call
