Northern Saw-whet Owl
I’m not sure if there are any “Cutest Owl” contests out there, but if there were, this little guy would win Best In Show. This Northern Saw-whet Owl currently lives in Warren, Mn. The photo was submitted by my friend, Lonnie, who in his spare time is a high-ranking bank official and a world-class birder. This particular type of owl weighs in at about 2.8 ounces, making it one of the smallest owls in North America (thank you Wikipedia). I always think that owls have the coolest hair.
what’s more boring? Bird watching or a blog post about one.
ouch!
Is it me, or does that owl’s hair remind you a bit of Jimmy Johnson’s hairdo? Just saying.
