Western screech owl

The Western screech owl (''Megascops kennicottii'') is a small owl native to North and Central America, closely related to the European scops owl and the North American eastern screech owl. The scientific name commemorates the American naturalist Robert Kennicott.
==Description==

Length averages , wingspan and weight . Weight ranges from .〔''CRC Handbook of Avian Body Masses'' by John B. Dunning Jr. (Editor). CRC Press (1992), ISBN 978-0-8493-4258-5.〕 Females are larger than males and Northern populations are notably larger than Southern races.〔() (2011).〕 Adults are larger than whiskered screech owls, with larger feet and more streaked plumage pattern.
There are several morphs: brown Pacific, grey Pacific, Great Plains, Mojave, and Mexican. All have either brown or dark gray plumage with streaking on the underparts. There is no red morph.
They have a round head with ear tufts, yellow eyes and a yellowish bill. Their appearance is quite similar to whiskered and eastern screech owls, so it's best to identify them by their calls. They were previously considered to be the same species as the eastern screech owl.〔''The Sibley Guide to Birds'', by David Allen Sibley, ISBN 0-679-45122-6〕
