One of the first things friends will say when they come to visit "Ah the peace and quite", they have no idea what they are in for with the barred owls, coyotes, and the eagles cackling at night along with the loons looning lol....Thanks for the video and helping out the owls. Logging companies clear cut across from my place over 6 years ago so 500 acres or more was lost to some of our woodland friends. I'm amazed at just how fast the clear cut is growing back.....
So true! There has been so much clear cutting here as well. Most of the public land has been largely clear cut, or in the early stages of regrowing. Old growth is mostly limited to a few private woodlots in my area. You are also right about the sounds - the chorus of nature still plays despite the challenges that have been placed to the habitat. Happy Easter!
What a great idea ! Honestly I had no idea they’d nest in a man made house. But I guess I’ve never thought that much into it or I would’ve figured it out. Lol. Great video ! Take care Jonathan
Great idea. Hopefully, it works there eh! Video of it being used would be awesome... I've put out wood duck boxes with some luck and Martin boxes with no luck so far... Thanks for sharing
Howdy Brother- really nice job on the owl house. You still are getting snow up there. It’s really beginning to turn green down in the South. I kinda dread the summer heat. Take care and God’s blessings to you
Still some snow but winter is on its way out, despite several feet still on the ground! It's a nice time of year though - more daylight + warmer temps. God bless you too!
Always wondered, do you pronounce the owl: Bard or Bar-red? Anyways, the house looks great! How much for rent!? Until you pass through again, have fun. JB 😆
I love watching the owls. Thank you for posting the videos.
Must be the best built owl box in history, it’ll last many generations. 👍🏼
Great job. Can’t wait to see a video with an owl in it. Thank you for sharing. ✌️
Here's hoping! :)

I found this to be quite enjoyable ✌
Thanks, Dan!

I did not know either! A friend of mine studies various birds and made the suggestion. We will see if they like this house or not ;)

Thanks for sharing
Same with wood duck boxes - I have had some luck. Would be very nice to see this owl house get some use. Hope to share some footage someday!
That is a beautiful owl. Thanks for helping it out!
Got to help the living creatures, aquatic and avian too
I must have have blinked - didn't see a single owl.
Скворешник гарный, хоть самому в нем селись...мебели нехватает.

Looks great, but didn’t see the little wood slats on the inside that help the baby owls climb out. Maybe I missed that.
It was a great job! Have owls settled in this house?
nice!
You are going to have some midnight hooting. Fitting for a night at the cabin.
Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪 to you and your family and subscriber's. Thanks for a lovely video. New subscriber 👍
Thanks Mark! What part of Ireland? I've great friends there.

Nice, I visit Kildare yearly. Love it there
@@PenniacWilderness see ya in naas next time ❤️
Good for you Jonathan, taking care of our feathered friends. Are you planning on putting a camera on the inside to view the chicks. Take care
HI Tom - It could be neat to see that footage, I will see if the house gets any use over the next few years. I hope it does!
"Take care"?
Why? is putting a camera in a dangerous activity?

I say Bard, but I'm not sure what's right! Ha! Rent is free ;)
Bard, because of the stripes/bars on its feathers
@@davidhensley76 that make sense, thanks! 🦉
@@davidhensley76 In which case it would be 'barred' wouldn't it. Unless of course, the owls write poetry.
Awesome! Any plans to do a bat box?
Thinking of that and a bird box too!
Very nice but how do you keep squirrels from taking over the nest?
Hopefully the owl takes care of that 😉
I’m curious on why you start the nail on a different piece of wood and then take it out and then put it in the project?
I was dulling the tip of the nail so it's less likely to split the wood.
@@PenniacWilderness good idea
Lucky owl. My house isn't that nice 😂
Ha! You can have it in the off season?
@@PenniacWilderness Thanks I'll probably take a bath in the stream too
