Where is the Operation Nest Box money going? Donations are greatly appreciated and all money generated from donations and owl nest box sales is invested directly back into this project. I have researched and consulted with many experts on the subject of nest boxes. My goal is to build a nest box that is simple, long lasting, and well suited to the Barn Owl. Box dimensions are set to minimize construction waste, maximize usable owl space, and protect the owls from the weather and predators. Boxes are erected on 16’ 4X4 posts in a fence line or on a terrace. The time and labor installing the nest boxes are volunteered but fuel charges will be applied. You are welcome to call and order a box and then
