I believe what he had there was an Eastern Screech Owl. They are a relatively small owl with a body about 8" and a wingspan of about 22". By comparison, a Great Horned Owl is 20", with a wingspan of 55".
I've seen many of the 'red phase' Screech Owls around here (eastern US), but not as many of the gray ones.Thanks!
