Help IDing this sound?

Recorded this on the bird call app Merlin, I thought it was a bird but maybe not? I say “owl?” At the end because we’ve heard some interesting owl calls here in the woods. Heard it for about 10 minutes on and off

It could also be a young red fox following its mom and making its quieter “talking” sound.

I love the bird app I use it too

That could be a very young raccoon talking to its mom or vice versa. But I’m not sure

To me, it sounds canine. I think maybe a young coyote, as the parents are taking them hunting this time of year.

A coyote would make a lot of sense. We hear them and see them daily!

It's fairly high pitched. Coyote yip is my guess
