         Thanks to Peter Sproule for leading us to the location of the owl.  We can ID this owl as a      Northern Saw-whet Owl as follows:

• Its very small size.  It looked about the size of an American Robin, if not slightly smaller.  They are one of the smallest owl species in North America.
• Round, oversize head and pale face with brown streaks.
• Yellow eyes with white V between them.
• Does not have ear tufts.
• Pale underparts with brown streaks
• Brown crown with white-spots.
  
  The Northern Saw-whet Owl is a new species to our Photographic Life List,which now stands at 850.
