Dear  Miss Cuttatree,

I am a saw whet owl.

Where I live: This owl breeds  in northern United States, and further southward in mountains. They winter throughout the breeding range, and southward across the United States. Saw–whet Owls inhabit all forest types in Washington state and southern Alaska eastward to Nova Scotia.

It is  important to keep our homes, we can help you with mice and rodents.  Without owls  the food  chain will be off balanced . also  Some animals  will become over populated . These  animals are important to farmers because they kill/eat rodents.   that kill the farmers crops and helps keep a balance in the food chain.

 My description, I am  a small broad owl with a short tall i may seem small but pack a punch . 

We have several  adaptations that make us effective hunters.  We have sharp tips at the edge of our wings so it muffles out the sound from prey or predators.   I have big yellow eyes in a brown color  size  7.1 8.5 inches.  

thack you for lilsnig
