Owl or Kestrel Extended Horizontal House
Add a unique nest box to your backyard for birds of prey with this Esschert Design Owl or Kestrel Extended Horizontal House. Providing these vital birds a shelter in your backyard adds natural pest control to it, while allowing you to enjoy an overlooked part of nature. The clever design and unique mounting system for this home bring a fresh look to your yard, and its soft green color enhances the setting. Its 26″ deep nesting area has both a front and back compartment, dividing the unit for the safety of nestlings. Owlets often will use a second nest box as a protected dining area, and this divided roost provides this easily. The 2.75″ diameter entry hole allows small owls to enter the shelter, and the significant overhang protects this opening from rain. The peaked roof, covered by silver colored metal, lends style to the home, while its pine construction ensures it remains a proper temperature for the birds. The included wooden plank attaches to the side mounting blocks with the included screws, enabling you to secure this home against a tree, wall, or post. Predrilled holes in the plank and blocks make installation simple, and you can remove the house from its mounted area for seasonal cleanings. Supply an innovative roost for birds of prey with this Extended Horizontal Owl or Kestrel House.
