Owl Houses
 

 
Owl Nest Boxes

The Owl Association of Public Awareness or owl apa has a goal, to make aware the great benefits owls can bring to your area.

The Owl feeds at night on rodents, birds, frogs and crayfish and rests during the day. An owl can consume a large amount of mice in an evening, helping to eliminate any mouse infestation.

Owls nest in cavities and will readily take to owl nest boxes. With the natural cavities becoming harder to find the owl apa wants everyone to hang owl nest boxes in their area.
 

 

The more people the owl apa can get to hang a owl nest box the better the owl has at survival.

When is the last time you heard the beloved “hoot” sound of an owl? Owls are permanent residents and don’t migrate. By hanging owl nest boxes you not only help the owl but also get to enjoy the lovely song of the owl.

Owls have excellent binocular vision with very fine depth perception giving them a great tool to use in capturing their prey. The owls eyes are large and on the front of their face giving little room in their skull for eye muscles. The owls eyes are 10 times as light sensitive as the human eye and can turn its head up to 270°  to follow a moving object.

The owl has the most highly developed sense of hearing of all birds. Their hearing is so good they can pinpoint the location of a cricket in the grass below them.

An owls prey never hears them coming as the owl is silent in flight. They eat their prey whole then later cough up an “owl pellet” of bones and fur. If you find an owl pellet you are sure to locate an owl near by. This is a good spot to hang owl nest boxes.
