Saw-whet owl?

This little guy just flew into our sliding glass door while we were eating. He was laying face down on the deck. By the time I grabbed some gloves he was standing and flew off when I opened the door. Bad pic, but he took off before we could get another one. We think it’s a Saw-whet owl?

Yup, definitely a Northern Saw-whet Owl. Did you perhaps check for a metal band on it's leg?

Never got a chance unfortunately. It came to, and flew away into the night.

Saw one of these owl's this summer while doing some trail maintenance in the Battle River valley. It seemed laid back, went past it (about 10 feet away) with a couple of brush cutters running and it didn't take off, just watched us go by. The closest I have ever been to an owl in the wild.

Sure hope he’s ok, a lot of times the poor buggers don’t live after hitting a window. I read it damages their brain or something to that effect and they die during the night. Maybe the bigger birds do better?
