Good morning,
This summer I was walking around behind the house and stumbled onto this little fellow sitting on the ground. After checking back later it was gone.
Might be Saw-Whet, or maybe Ferruginous Pygmy-Owl....both are about the same size. Really nice picture!

EDIT...Nope, after more research, you guys don't have Ferruginous Owls up there...must be Saw Whet. Good call.
