Colima Pygmy-Owl

A Reference for North and Central American Owls

The Colima Pygmy-Owl is a very small owl about the size of an Elf Owl which is considered the world’s smallest owl. It is certainly as bold and ferocious as its larger cousin the Northern Pygmy-Owl. Here you can find photos, recordings and information to help identify and enjoy this beautiful owl. The Field Notes section includes information on nesting, habitat, description and classification. There is also a Central American range map below.
