After calling repeatedly, a pair of these tiny owls (5-1'2" long) surprised onlookers by mating while perched in silhouette on a power line.

I adore Elf Owls!! We had a cute little Pygmy Owl named Gizmo at the bird sanctuary I work for. He would stand on his perch, and you would see a little face looking at you from around the corner. He was the most amazing little thing I'd ever seen!
