Ferruginous Pygmy-Owl

San Miguelito Ranch; Kenedy Co TX

Here is what all the fuss was about! A couple of guys that were there had run out of time and were about to leave when this little dynamo showed up out of nowhere!

I would have to rate this as my bird of the trip, even though I've heard them call in TX, and seen them briefly in South America.

The visit to San Miguelito was very enjoyable anyway, but looks like this at one of these puts any doubt to rest!
