Barred Owlet Trying To Hoot

Is this not an adorable face? The baby owlet was calling back to its parents. Both parents were doing the Who Cooks For You hoot from 2 different trees. Possibly trying to call the baby out of the nest. The baby was making a scratchy sound that reminded me of fingers nails on a chalk board.
