Day-lee Fo-toe

Ernie the Owl

This is Ernie. He's our newest tenant at my parents' house. If I could reach him, I would hug him and squeeze him and kiss him before he pecked my eyes out. I think this is why one of my friends referred to me as Elmira from Tiny Toons. Can I help it if I have too much love to give? Can I?

Cool. I have two questions: What kind of owl is he? and how high up is that box?

Well, I figured that the type of owl he was was just Freakin' Cute. Especially after he plopped into the bottom of that box/Owl Condo when I got too close. But after doing a little research right this second (about a minute after you posted that comment ***ponders her need for a life***), I found out that it's an Eastern Screech-Owl or Otus Asio. However he really doesn't resemble his awkward namesake from everyone's favorite Saved By the Bell.

And for your second question: About 12 feet.
