Montane Forest Screech-Owl

Medium-sized owl of upland humid forest mixed with Podocarpus and alders on the east slope of the Andes from NW Argentina to central Bolivia. The only Screech-Owl through much of its range. At lower elevation sites may overlap with Tropical Screech-owl, from which it can be distinguished by its slower, longer song.

Since I've been seeing mostly Red-winged Blackbirds lately, I may as well lean into it. Just look at her fluffy little face.
