This Costa Rican Pygmy-Owl was in April 2008 in the Central mountain range of Costa Rica. I was very surprised when we just happened to pull off the road and heard a pygmy-owl calling. When I started whistling to the owl three of them flew in... this one was very close (maybe just 10 feet overhead!).
