I Was Just Trying to Be Nonchalant
This really is a screech-owl. Very nice addition.

Western Screech Owl
Thanks David!

The biologist at the Center for Biodiversity in Tucson agrees with you - he too says it is a Screech Owl, likely a Western Screech Owl. This has been great - I've not looked so closely at these species until now - Thanks! Greg
