Owl

I don't know why, but an owl

You know, if I were to say "my favorite animal"-- there'd be a list 50 animals long because I can't choose. But I'd say owls are definitely in the top 10.

So, I'll do my favorite kind of owl, a northern pygmy owl. And you'll see why because I'm literally insane and like brutal little animals who should not be able to do what they do. They're also just very cute visually.

The northern pygmy owl is native to western North America, and has the tiniest little 'hoots' that make it sound like a squeaky toy, that make you think it couldn't possible be a threat to anything. It even chitters.

They are only 6.75 inches long (yes I did google this part) with a wing span of 12 inches, weighing only 2.5 oz. That is absolutely tiny. LOOK. I could go on about the cutesy stuff about this bird, but I love brutal. And these guys have some 'interesting' behaviors such as-- this. Clip from Ze Frank's video.

I know that mf wasn't eating or burying his food. That was sus. Anyways, the more brutal part is notice what the prey is. Literally another bird, the size of itself. They're just as deadly as bigger owls, just packed into a tiny little party sized pellet.

Speaking of which, here's an owl pellet. The regurgitated bones and fur that owls can't digest. Owls typically get rid of 1 or 2 a day. A more known fact, but still interesting nonetheless. The Northern Pygmy Owl is low conservation concern.

Paul Bannick Photography : Northern Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium gnoma)The smaller the owl, the more quickly it gains independence. Larger owls like Great Gray Owls and Great Horned Owls can take 2-3 months to hunt on their owl, while young Northern Pygmy Owls like this one can hunt by 4-5 weeks.

February 10, 2024 - Peruvian Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium peruanum) Found in parts of Ecuador, Peru, and northern Chile, these small owls live in forests, sometimes near rivers, scrub, agricultural areas, gardens, and towns. Though the details of their diet are not known, it is likely made up of large invertebrates and small vertebrates, including moths, beetles and their larvae, frogs, and birds. They nest in tree cavities, old hornero nests, and possibly holes in walls and river banks, though little else is known about their breeding behavior.
