Great, I have Barred owls all around me. I have a camera in my backyard and I watch a Barred owl that sits on my gate at night crush rats and mice. Awesome to watch , lightning fast. I think I'll make a nesting box or buy one.
Great owl content, Bob! Really enjoy your design! Gonna have to make one or two just like it for some barred buddies down here in these Texas woods ;) happy holidays & birding sir!
Awesome video! I am around perth at opinicon rd and i heard a barred owl the other night! Could have been your barred owl friend... I have a perfect location for a cool box and ill get it done this summer for this fall! Take care of the mice for us around here. Thanks take care
As much as possible I use wire with tightners , putting small boards at the pressure points . This allows for tree growth, as you can loosen as the tree grows. Sometimes deck screws with washers from the mounting plate and inside the box. Don’t like doing that though?? Bob
I have a pair at my house. Built them a box last week but I put the perches too low. I just posted a video with tons of video of them. Check it out. The owls are the last few minutes. Man I hope they use the box!
Wouldn't you say the box is somewhat small in case the female lays and hatches like 5 eggs? As they grow bigger there's nowhere to move and flap wings.
I’m in Florida and I have a fledgling in a tree he was at my front door peeking in lol I did want to help but not disturb but I am concerned momma is up in a large oak watching but I’m not sure she is feeding the beautiful baby what are ya gonna do
He should be fine, mom and or dad should be feeding but by now the youngster will be hunting some on his own, they often sit for hours waiting for a food opportunities. Enjoy the scenery. 😊👌
Hi Joyce - you definitely can. Go to our website gilligalloubird.com/collections/nesting-boxes and order one. We will have it made and sent out. Our thanks
Snobbish lady barred owls like crayfish very much. WCFY , WCFY, WCFY! It is very hard to marry a lady barred owl. And they marry for a life. Very demanding wives!

Bob great video. Would you be able to tell us how you fastened the box to the tree?

How high off the ground?
Will the local areas' squirrels take the box before the owls ? No. California
Lol well? 😊I always say that they likely will but they will scatter when the owls show up??? 😎😊😆
I wish to purchase an owl box to be placed in a woodland.
