Barred Owl House

Extra Shipping charges will apply on this item. Barred Owls live year-round in mixed forests of large trees, often near water. They tend to occur in large, unfragmented blocks of mature forest, possibly because old woodlands support a higher diversity of prey and are more likely to have large cavities suitable for nesting. Barred Owl's preferred habitats vary, from swamps to streamsides to uplands and may contain hemlock, maple, oak, hickory, beech, aspen, white spruce, quaking aspen, balsam poplar, Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, or western larch. Know for their unique call “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you-all?”, Barred Owls often take up residence in nest boxes in mature forests. Consider putting up a nest box to attract a breeding pair. Make sure you put it up well before breeding season. (Typically breeding season runs from December - March) Installation: Box should have 2-3" of shavings at the bottomHeight placement should be 12-15 feetIf putting up more than one, place 1/2 mil
