Barn Owl nest boxes

Barn Owls are sensitive to disturbance so it's best to place boxes in quiet locations.

Tawny Owl boxes

Tawny Owls are content to nest in smaller cavities than barn Owls and the designs of the nestboxes reflect this.

Nest boxes for other species

Little Owls, stock doves and jackdaws all nest in cavities and do sometimes make use of Owl or kestrel boxes.

Kestrel nestboxes

Kestrels nest in a range of cavities, usually with an open outlook.
