Little owl in my horse shelter!!

I was out feeding my horse and when I was getting the hay I suddenly saw something fly by my head. I looked up and it was a little owl!! It is soooo cute! I looked it up and it looks like it is a Northern Saw-Whet Owl.

It is rather friendly too. I got within 1 foot of it before it flew to a rafter. Its favorite perch is Berdi's feeder on the wall! I think I might be able to tame it a little - it seems quite unconcerned!

Here are some pictures of the cutie! :D

Awww!!! And I bet you won't have much of a mouse problem with him around.

Aww... too cute :). Hope he keeps rodents away.

I'd still give up the taming idea. I think it can possibly cause problems to the little fella later in his life (all people aren't that nice and it'd be pity if the owl ended up to rely on the wrong person once).
