The Such boys' nice photos and video vividly show the small size of these small owls as the prey is longer than the predator (Sibley lists Harris's Sparrow at 7.5 inches in length while Northern Pygmy-Owl is shown as only 6.75 inches in length). If you haven't checked out their blog post on this, please do as these young men have done not only a great photo/video job but a nice write-up.
