A loud bang woke my Mom this morning and she looked out her bedroom window to see a pygmy owl sitting on the roof where it had apparently landed after crashing into the window.
Pygmy owls are not nocturnal which explains its presence during the day, but the curtains were closed on the window it crashed into, so why it crashed is a bit of a mystery. My Dad suggested maybe it was chasing something.
I didn't take this picture...It was taken for me so that I could see the little owl without running up the stairs...um, not something I'm able to do quite yet. I've heard their calls before, but never actually seen one.
