Our guard dog, Frank was barking late last night in an even bark rate from inside our barn. When I went to the barn to investigate what the barking was about, I saw that this little guy was the reason. I think that this is a Northern Saw-Whet Owl. It appeared to be quite tame or not fearful. I was able to get to within 10 feet of him.
Could someone please confirm the ID of this owl?
Thank you.

Northern Saw-whet Owl. They all appear tame and can allow close approach.

Agreed on the Saw-whet. They are great little owls
