I believe that nesting pairs will hoot to each other when they switch 
incubation duties, bring in food, etc.  Usually this hooting is less extensive 
than during courtship and territory establishment.  Do you know if you have a 
nest nearby?

I also occasionally hear hooting at any time of the year, and not necessarily 
in an established territory, so maybe sometimes they're just talking to each 
other ... ?

 3:45 - 4:00 AM.  So far past the usual mating time, what might this signify?A 
failed nest, causing the owls to start again?
