A mated pair of Barred Owls have a communication between themselves that is
raucous and close to "insane". This is nothing like the "Who-who-who-who,
who cooks for you all?" which is downright normal in comparison. Also,
young owls have some very harsh food-begging calls.

It would be "amazing" to find a Boreal Owl in Dartmouth in summer, probably
roughly zero probability. But then, birds do what they will. ;^)

Some of the Barred Owl calls having a hooting quality to them. They<br>
are very open to urban areas as well. It might be one of these.<br>
