Precious Owl

One morning as I took my dog out with a leash, right where I lean on my deck, it startled me, a little figure, I was so thankful to see this small owl on my deck.

It didn’t move just opened an eye to check me out, it wasn’t afraid, it seemed like it is familiar with my dog and I, and stayed there for a few hours.

I saw it take flight beautifully, I hope it comes back, a site to behold!

What kind of an owl could it be?

Thanks for your cute picture - my apologies for the long delay in publishing this.
