Kestrel & Owl Nest Boxes

The Woodlink Screech Owl & Kestrel House, complete with a kestrel in the entrance hole.

BestNest offers a broad selection of big nest boxes for cavity nesting birds including American Kestrels, Barred Owls, Eastern and Western Screech Owls, Barn Owls, and more. The illustrated Woodlink Screech Owl & Kestrel House provides screech owls and American Kestrels with a nesting cavity, plus a winter shelter for owls. The 3-inch diameter hole is perfect for screech owls and kestrels, and the nest box has been designed according to Conservation Commission specifications. The sloping roof of the nest box sheds water and overhangs the entrance hole, protecting the birds from direct sun and the elements.

Positioned just under the roof, a ventilation slot helps regulate air flow and temperature. A ladder on the inside of the front nest box panel makes it easy for nestlings to climb out when it's time to fledge. The front panel swings up for convenient cleaning at the end of the nesting season, and it fastens closed with an easy to use latch. Constructed with cedar, the Woodlink Screech Owl & Kestrel House measures 20 inches high x 13 long x 9 inches wide.

BirdNest has a variety of nest boxes for a variety of owls and other birds too. For more information about the Woodlink Screech Owl & Kestrel House and other nest boxes, bird houses, and other fine products, see https://www.bestnest.com/bestnest/owl_houses.asp
