Hooting bird (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

owl

'hooting bird' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for owl that I've seen before include "Wise old night-flier" , "One flying" , "Wise figure" , "One swoops" , "Nocturnal bird of prey" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Sun, the LA Times, the Universal, the Penny Press, The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate and the Newsday.
