Cloud-forest Pygmy-Owl

Glaucidium nubicola Robbins, MB; Stiles, FG 1999

The cloud-forest pygmy owl is a short, muscular, small-sized species of owl found throughout the Andes of western Colombia and north-western Ecuador, being confined to cloud forests between 900–2000 m a.s.l. Below this altitudinal range the Central American pygmy owl occurs; above it, the Andean pygmy owl occurs. Source: Wikipedia
