We just had a downpour. We looked out and saw this sitting on our porch rail. I think it's a Saw whet. Definitely smallest owl I ever saw that wasn't in a zoo.
Planned on yard and garden work today. Humidity at 90 %
everything's wet. Turning into a recliner day.

@Baymule thank the Lord it's only 81°. In about 15 mins an 1" fell. AC is on constant now.
Owl made the day. Saw it dash under a bush by the house. As the rain left off it went to the tree base. It was looking at me while I try to get a picture. Then it flew to the porch. Went from one rail to the other. Hardhead ,alias DW ,opens the door and takes the picture. He was 3 ft away. Imagine trying to catch it if it came in the house. With those claws.
I think I need a trail cam. I saw one a week ago by my shed. Caught it in my headlights as I pulled in.

That was good of him. Buying and storing it is always a pain for me. I can't store enough to buy in any big quantity or I'd load up on Timothy or orchard grass. One round bale would last me a year. Picture bringing that home in an S-10. Oh well it should make good mulch.
Used to haul a round bale on my toyota... the little pick up... all the time. Would decide where I wanted it, then back up real fast and hit the brakes & it would roll out.... when no one was around to help. Just always made sure they did not put it in flat side down.....
