It lives mainly on the West coast of North America and does not migrate.

The main living areas are Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia.

They live most commonly in the East Cascades.

Preferred Habitat and Range

Page 4: Northern Pygmy Owl

The Northern Pygmy Owl nests mainly in tree cavities and old woodpecker holes.

They do not build on to the trees, meaning they do not build their own nests.

This owl feeds on small rodents, insects, and small birds such as humming birds.
