jhayesvw Cream of the Crop More info | Jun 05, 2015 00:30 | #1 As many of you know, the Elf owl is the world's smallest Owl. Tonight I brought a friend out for his first time ever shooting birds. We hung out listening to the Elf Owls in the dark for a while and then took some photos. I think it was a successful night! It was pitch black and we were finding the owls with a flashlight to shoot photos.   This time he has a caterpillar!!   This shot didnt turn out very sharp, but I like it anyway.

Bret, you are correct they are 6" or under. Typically about 5" tall. Think of a Coke can. They are about that big. It's crazy! and i thought the northern pygmy owl i photographed this spring was small! sounds like these little guys are even smaller - though not by a lot... Rocky ~

You are correct. These are smaller. They are officially the smallest owl in the world. Pretty cool
