About the Elf Owl:

The Elf Owl (Micrathene whitneyi) is the world's lightest owl, weighing barely more than a golf ball. Found in the arid landscapes of the American Southwest and Mexico, this tiny nocturnal hunter makes its home in abandoned woodpecker holes carved into saguaro cacti and desert trees. Despite its diminutive size, the Elf Owl is a skilled insect hunter with a surprisingly fierce spirit.
