Things to consider before installing a barred owl nestbox  ...

Before you install a barred owl nestbox keep in mind that these are one of the most difficult birds to attract to ay garden or backyard as because barred owls have an aversion to human company.  This is why a barred owl  nestbox must offer the birds optimum privacy.

If you are serious about attracting these reclusive owls to your backyard you must try and locate the barred owl nestbox as far away from the prying eyes of humans as possible.  If there is human activity within 100 feet of her nest, the barred owl will abandon her eggs.  Owls also have a preference for bird boxes built out of cedar slats.  The box should also never be placed in an area where it could be vandalized by curious animals or children.
