My apologies.
I received an invitation from April to visit and view very early this morning. I was very skeptical. Fast drive.
There now. Matt present. It appears to be a Tengmalm!

> I thought some of you might like to see a few pictures of the most exciting visitor we've had in our yard, this little owl which I believe is a Saw-Whet. Are Saw-Whet Owls common in Seattle? This is the first one I've ever seen. Its been sleeping in our yard for a few days now.

> He or she is absolutely adorable, but I am hoping it won't hurt our songbirds? We tried to feed it mice from the pet store, but it didn't seem interested. Should I keep trying? I don't really know what to do with the mice and they give me the creeps.
