Those are the two owls that lost their home to Milton when their tree fell on our house, birdcage and pool. Glad they found a new home

Good picture. Sure they’re not great horned owlets? To me little horned humps and beak looks like GHOs? Barred owls are all rounded heads and beaks are little different. But, seeing parents would be dead give away?
