First let me start off by saying that I know nothing about birds. About 3 weeks ago my girlfriend and I noticed a tiny bird just sitting right next to one of our security camers with his back faced towards us. He comes back every day no earlier than 6:00 in the evening. He is usually in the same exact spot every time that he comes and usually stays in the same spot and in the same position un-animated for hours! He does not move, you can barely even tell if hes breathing or not, we have not seen what the front of him or what his face looks like because of the fact that he is so completely still that you would think its a statue. Could this possibly be a baby owl? I live in southern louisiana and we do hear owls at night from time to time. Any insight would be greatly appreciated as to what type of bird this is and why he does this?

Not an Owl, but rather a Carolina Wren. They often huddle up in a corner like that when they roost for the night.
I just went to go look it up, that sounds spot on, thanks a bunch! We were always curious about him but he comes so much now that we were finally curious ENOUGH to actually join a forum and try to research a little bit. Again.... Thank you!
