Lovely poem about the Barred Owl, Sara. I've been fortunate to see them recently. I was not familiar with that call in the clip - I've only heard their famous 'who-cooks-for-you' call. :)

I’ve noticed your barred owl sightings lately! Your photos and videos are sharp. (I couldn’t help but smirk this past month when seeing your latest posts, knowing that I was working on a sonnet about them. 😄) Concerning the call in the video… I hadn’t heard it before either. I even had to make sure it was a Barred using the Merlin app. I did some further querying and learned that it’s an attracting/mating call.
