Peekaboo ...

            Northern Saw-whet Owls are one of the smallest owls in the world. Though to their favorite prey, mice, as well as to other small mammals, they are fierce, silent hunters, planning on making a meal of them. Saw-whet owls also occasionally hunt small birds and will sometimes dine on insects. These tiny owls live in forested areas throughout most of Canada, the United States, and some areas of Mexico and are seldom seen. Being highly nocturnal, saw-whet owls spend their days roosting, camouflaged within the foliage of trees, waiting silently until late into dusk before beginning to hunt.
