Description of the Bird
I went to clean my window where a bird had hit. I discovered the deceased Northern Pygmy Owl. I recall hearing the hit in the middle of the night several days ago.
Similar Species Discussion
I originally thought it might be a hawk, but the feathered feet and small size were not making sense. I used the "Picture This" app and it identified the owl. I was then able to confirm in my bird books.
Resources Used
Picture This app, Golden Guide to Field Identification Birds of North America, other internet pictures.
