owl box
Nocturnal bird shelter
An owl box is a wooden nesting structure designed to attract owls, mounted on trees or poles.
Like birdhouses for smaller species, owl boxes provide shelter for breeding and roosting, helping owl populations in areas where natural tree cavities are scarce: We installed an owl box to control the rodent population.
