Elf owls nest in the cavities of cacti, sycamores, and oak trees 15 to 35 feet above the ground, which makes it difficult for most predators to access. They also see very well in low light and have an excellent sense of hearing, and thus are quite adept at pinpointing both predators and prey at night.
